Gram Gauge

Gram Gauge Worksheet

Worksheet Description

This worksheet consists of several spring scales, each marked exclusively in grams to measure mass. Students are required to carefully examine each scale and write down the correct mass based on the readings provided. The exercise includes a range of different masses to offer diverse practice in reading these instruments. Designed for clarity, the scales use simple markings to facilitate easy understanding and accurate recording of the measurements.

The worksheet is designed to enhance students’ skills in reading and interpreting measurements of mass on spring scales. It focuses on the metric unit of grams, a fundamental unit in science, emphasizing the importance of precision and accuracy in scientific measurement. Students learn to correlate the physical weight of an object with its numerical representation in grams. This activity serves to build their observational skills and prepares them for more detailed experiments involving mass and weight in future scientific studies.
