Learning About Mass - hands on and fun

Year 2 students were asked what Mass means. It was really interesting to view the results. In the end it was decided that mass was measuring the weight of objects. Today the students practised hefting.
After hefting to find a number of blocks to match the teacher's mystery bag, the students used the pan balance to find objects that had the same mass. 
The students were excellent at sharing the equipment, working in teams and using mathematical language.
