Science: Measuring Forces

Today in Science we talked about the difference between Mass and Weight. Mass refers to how much of something there is and Weight refers to how much the force of gravity pulls down on something.

We looked at spring scales and how to use them and the class made their own out an elastic, a pencil and a ruler. They used their scales to measure the weight of some classroom items.

There is no homework for today's science lesson.
