Topic C: Comparison of Weight

Lesson 8 Concept Development and Problem Set

Draw three things you wouldn’t mind carrying around in your backpack, even if you had to walk a long way.

Now, draw one thing that you would not want to carry around in your backpack because it might make you very tired. Why wouldn’t you want to carry it? How is it different from the first things you drew? Talk to your partner about your pictures.

Which is heavier? Circle the object that is heavier than the other.

Draw 3 objects that are lighter than your chair.

1. What did you notice about heavier than and lighter than when you were working with your partner in our class activity?
2. How could you tell that one thing was lighter than and heavier than another?
3. Are bigger things always heavier than smaller things?
4. Are smaller objects always lighter than larger things?
5. How did you decide which object would be heavier on the Problem Set? Could you make a prediction even though you couldn’t feel their weight?
6. Which objects did you circle? Why?
7. What new (or significant) math vocabulary did we use today to talk about our object?

Lesson 8 Homework
Draw an object that would be lighter than the one in the picture.

Learning Goal
