Theme 1: Mass
Students will be introduced to the concept of mass and weight, along with their units.
HW - THEME 1 VOCABULARY
CLASS 51 - THURSDAY, JANUARY 21, 2016
Theme 1 Activity: Estimating Mass of Objects
Students will estimate the mass of various objects and then find the actual mass of the same objects.
CLASS 52 - FRIDAY, JANUARY 22, 2016
Completing Theme 1 Activity: Estimating Mass of Objects
Students will estimate the mass of various objects and then find the actual mass of the same objects.
Completing Theme 1: Mass
Students will be introduced to the concept of mass and weight, along with their units.
CLASS 53 - TUESDAY, JANUARY 26, 2016
Exploration Gizmo: Weight and Mass @ www.explorelearning.com
Students will define mass and weight, use a balance and spring scale, and learn that weight of an object changes when moved to another planet, while mass of an object is always constant no matter where it is located.
HW: REVIEW FOR TEST - TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 2 (Theme 1 workbook/textbook pages and gizmo)
CLASS 54 - THURSDAY, JANUARY 28, 2016
