Mass with Max
This useful worksheet has been created to support your students when learning to interpret unmarked and partial units when measuring and comparing attributes of mass, using scaled and digital instruments and appropriate units. Students colour code or use a line to match each attribute and mass to the most appropriate scaled instrument. A perfect introduction activity to this unit.
Learning goals
- We are learning to use scaled instruments to measure length, mass, capacity and temperatures.
- We are learning to compare objects using familiar units of area and volume, e.g. centicubes.
- We are learning to use scaled instruments to measure length, mass, capacity, duration and temperature.
