Tick It
Worksheet Description
This worksheet presents pairs of images in four separate boxes, with one object in each box. Students are instructed to tick the box next to the object they believe is heavier. The pairs include a pair of pliers and a nail, a whale and a fish, a teapot and a piece of paper, and a balloon and a soccer ball. Each pair is carefully chosen to depict one object that is typically heavier than the other in real life, despite their size differences in the illustrations.
The worksheet is designed to help students develop the ability to discern differences in weight between two objects. It teaches them to use critical thinking and make judgments based on their understanding of the world around them. The task encourages the recognition of weight as a property that does not always correlate with size. This activity also helps reinforce vocabulary associated with weight and introduces students to a variety of objects, broadening their general knowledge.
