Primary 1 have been finding out about weight in terms of heavy and light. Everyone had the chance to compare two objects. They then used a two pan balance to be able to identify which object was heavy and which was light.
Primary 2 used the two pan balance and non arbitrary units such as cubes and pegs to balance a range of objects. Everyone had a turn to take part in the measuring activity. The children were really good at guessing which was going to be the heavier or lighter of the two objects.
