Making Benchmarks - Mass
Elementary schoolers predict the mass for different objects. Then, using objects of 1kg mass, they make a more precise prediction. Afterwards, they discuss the need for having and using standard measures of mass.
Curated OER
Measuring Weight, Mass, and Capacity
Second graders investigate the concept of measuring weight, mass, and capacity. In this measurement worksheet, 2nd graders compare items using the words "more than" or "less than." They predict whether an item weighs more or less than a...

Measure Mania
Groups of learners rotate through five classroom stations to estimate, measure, and record volume, length, weight, mass, and area using both customary and metric measure. They evaluate their data to determine how close their estimates...
Curated OER
Measuring Beads
Students compare the weight of the students's favorite soft toys directly and then indirectly using beads.
Curated OER
Volume and Mass: Identify the Attribute
Students rotate through five studying stations related to the attributes of volume and mass. They manipulate objects to explore mass, compare two masses by pushing and lifting, pack materials and fill containers, and pour liquids from...
