Measuring Mass Worksheets. Measurement is an integral part of our day to day life that develops over time. This is an editable worksheet which students use to estimate the individual masses of common kitchen items (ie. a box of Kraft Dinner), rank their estimates from lightest to heaviest, weigh each item, and then re-rank the items by their actual masses.
This is a great resource for students to identify the mass of objects using balance scales. In this science activity, find out how much each object weighs. Students will practise comparing the mass of objects using uniform informal units.
A worksheet to use when exploring mass and how to measure it with informal units.
Investigate Activity: Estimating and Measuring Mass Students compare their estimates of the mass of different objects with their measurements of the mass of the objects.
Mass Worksheet (pdf) - Student worksheet that goes along with the presentation. Use the pre and post tests to ascertain each student's prior knowledge before starting a mass unit of work. Students will practise comparing the mass of objects using uniform informal units.
