Balancing and Weighing provides a sequence of activities that capitalize on students' eagerness to manipulate objects as they explore the relationship between balance and weight. These activities include:
- Exploring balance by manipulating objects on a fulcrum.
- Building a mobile.
- Working with a balance beam to explore how the amount and position of weight and the position of the fulcrum affect balance.
- Using an equal-arm balance to compare the weights of different objects.
- Solving problems involving the weights of various dried foods.
The
Two-Use Kit comes with all of the great materials you’d expect from the STC Program™ along with a box containing the materials for a second, non-concurrent use. All you need to do is set the box aside until you are ready for it.
