Nesting Pan Balance - Set of 4

The Nesting Pan Balance - Set of 4 is a versatile and essential tool for exploring concepts of volume and weight in a hands-on manner. With clear 500ml pans, it is designed to handle both liquids and solids, making it ideal for teaching students about mass, balance, and comparisons. The balance is easy to set up in three simple steps and features a space-saving storage base that allows all four balances to be neatly stored together. This compact design makes it suitable for both individual and group activities in the classroom. Students can use the balance to practice greater than, less than, and equal to signs while also exploring mass equivalency. The Nesting Pan Balance is perfect for helping young learners understand fundamental concepts in measurement and comparison, building a foundation for later studies in science and mathematics. The balance measures 35cm in length, providing an ideal size for classroom activities.

Educational Benefits:

• Helps students understand the concepts of volume and weight through practical, hands-on activities.
• Enhances comprehension of mass equivalency and the relationships between different measurements.
• Supports learning of greater than, less than, and equal to comparisons in a tangible and interactive way.
• Promotes critical thinking as students make comparisons and solve measurement-related problems.

Classroom Ideas:

• Use the balances for group activities where students compare the weight or volume of different objects.
• Incorporate into science experiments where students measure the weight of solids and liquids to understand mass.
• Integrate into lessons on the concept of balance, demonstrating how objects on each pan can be compared.
• Use as a tool to introduce and practice the greater than, less than, and equal to signs in relation to mass.

Information:

• Ages: Suitable for students aged 5 and above.
• Measurements: 35cm in length per balance.
• Quantity: Set includes 4 balances.
