Which is Heavier‪?‬

In this book, Millie the Mathematician helps us learn about measuring mass. We learn how to build our own set of balance scales to compare the masses of everyday objects to work out which object is heavier. Sid also makes predictions about which object will be heavier and what will happen when objects are placed in the balance scales. This book addresses content from the Measurement and Geometry strand within the Using units of measurement sub-strand. The specific Australian Curriculum content descriptor addressed is: “Compare masses of objects using balance scales.”
