Teachers, save “(A6) Measuring Mass With a Triple Beam B…” to assign it to your class.

To use a triple beam balance with accuracy: • The pointer must be pointed at zero (balanced) before you begin. • You need to be sure that the 100’s and 10’s weights are in notches. • You have to add correctly. To measure with precision: • You need to measure the mass two times and get the same answer. Hands-on Activity 1. Check the triple beam balance to ensure that it is balance. Adjust as needed. 2. Put a bottle on the pan. What did you observe? 3. Move the 100’s beam, 10’s beam, and 1’s beam to balance the scale. Start with the 100’s beam first, then the 10’s and then the 1’s. 4. Slide 1: Take a photo of the triple beam balance, bottle, beams, and the line balanced at the 0. Take a close-up photo of the beams (showing the numbers). Add up the beams. Write the mass on slide 1. Use the 🎤 to describe this activity. Be sure to use the required vocabulary words and content. 5. Slide 2: Answer the questions. Check your work. Make corrections as needed. 6. Slide 3: Record the purpose of the activity. 7. Click the green check to save. 8. Tag your partner.
