Comprehensive PowerPoint Resource for Teaching Mass in Stage 2 Mathematics

Unlock the power of measurement with our engaging and interactive PowerPoint resource designed specifically for Stage 2 students! This comprehensive two-lesson package focuses on understanding mass through grams and kilograms, providing educators with a complete teaching toolkit to foster student learning and engagement.

Lesson Highlights:

Lesson 1: Understanding Mass

• Learning Intention: Students will learn to estimate, measure, and record the mass of various objects using grams and kilograms.
• Success Criteria: Clear and achievable goals guide students through estimating masses, measuring with scales, recording their findings, and comparing different weights.
• Interactive “I Do, We Do, You Do” Format: The lesson includes a step-by-step modelling approach, followed by guided practice, and culminates in independent activities that reinforce learning.
