measuring equipment

standard units of
measuring by using old
hands on measuring
scales.
                Heavier than or lighter than?
Putting context to heavier
than, lighter than.”

  than’, ‘lighter than’ and the ‘same as’ terms.
Balance Scales – with variable
weight location pegs.

• Variable arm weight location pegs allow for
  students to build proportional thinking and
  weight measurement understanding.
• Great discussion points to make.
How heavy is an apple?

•   Build discussions to answer posed questions.
•   Learn to read metric standards accurately
•   Build understanding of milligrams, grams and kilograms.
•   Explain why the NZ moved to the Metrics measuring system.
                      • Introduce imperial measurement terms, what are they
                          and where are they used
                          today?
Use a measurement instrument designed
for the purpose. – (Drake,2010)

• Text book, online or… provide rich experiences
  with an instrument - scales give multiple
  approaches to weight and weighing concepts.
Use measuring instruments to
teach multiple concepts
• Weighing and weight
• Read and accurately compare varying conversions of metric
  measurement.
• Milligrams, grams, kilograms.
• Proportional weights.


The end.
