Measuring mass in Maths

Over the last 2 weeks we have been exploring Mass. We have learnt how to read scales accurately, and we are able to identify different intervals shown on scales. We have practiced converting between kg and g. This week we have used the scales to measure the mass of different objects. We have used the measuring scales to balance an object directly, but we have also used balancing scales to explore the different combinations of weights that are needed to balance an object. We had great fun measuring all of the different objects.
