Measuring Mass - Worksheet
Maths Resource Description
The "Measuring Mass" worksheets are a series of educational resources designed to help students understand the concept of mass and how to measure and compare it. The first worksheet presents a comparison exercise where students are asked to identify which of the given objects has the greater mass by circling it. In another section, they choose the appropriate unit of measurement—grams (g) or kilograms (kg)—for the mass of several items. This encourages students to think about the scale of mass and which unit is more suitable for different types of objects.
Subsequent worksheets offer a variety of tasks to further develop students' understanding of mass. One worksheet instructs students to connect each object to its most likely mass, distinguishing between weights that are less than or more than 1 kilogram. Another worksheet challenges students to estimate the mass of different items and record their answers in grams or kilograms. In a comparison activity, learners are tasked with using relational symbols to compare different masses, such as determining if 1000 grams is more than, less than, or the same as 1 kilogram. Additionally, students are asked to order objects from lightest to heaviest and to evaluate statements regarding the mass of objects, deciding whether they are true or false. These exercises aim to enhance students' ability to measure, compare, and order mass, as well as to convert between units of measurement.
