Introduce Weight and Mass Year 1 Weight and Mass Resource Pack includes a teaching PowerPoint and differentiated varied fluency and reasoning and problem solving resources for Spring Block 4.
This pack includes:
Mathematics Year 1: (1M2) Measure and begin to record: mass/weight
Mathematics Year 1: (1M1) Compare, describe and solve practical problems for: mass/weight [for example, heavy/light, heavier than, lighter than]
Differentiation:
Varied Fluency
Developing Questions to support developing their understanding of weight and mass. Using a seesaw scale. Including language of heavier and lighter.
Expected Questions to support developing their understanding of weight and mass. Using a balance scale. Including language of heavier, equal and lighter.
Greater Depth Questions to support developing their understanding of weight and mass. Using a balance scale and instances where the weight of two objects must be used to determine the weight of another object. Including language of heavier, equal and lighter.
Reasoning and Problem Solving
Questions 1, 4 and 7 (Reasoning)
Developing Explain if a statement is correct. Using seesaw scales and language of heavier and lighter.
Expected Explain if a statement is correct. Using a balance scale and language of heavier, lighter and equal.
