CURRICULUM OUTCOMES
Australian Curriculum:
Measure and compare objects based on length, capacity and mass using appropriate uniform informal units and smaller units for accuracy when necessary (AC9M2M01)
NSW Curriculum:
Outcomes:
Measures, records, compares and estimates the masses of objects using uniform informal units. (MA1-NSM-01)
Content:
Compare the masses of objects using an equal-arm balance
Use uniform informal units to measure the mass of an object by counting the number of units needed to obtain a level balance on an equal-arm balance
Select an appropriate uniform informal unit to measure the mass of an object and justify the choice
Explain the relationship between the mass of a unit and the number of units needed
Compare the masses of two or more objects using the same informal units
Estimate mass by referring to the number and type of informal unit used and check by measuring
Recognise that mass is conserved
