Estimating Mass: Around the House

What’s the heaviest object in your home? What about the lightest? Find out with this helpful third-grade worksheet! Learners will be shown nine common household objects, each with two potential mass measurements in grams and kilograms. They will need to decide which of the measurements would be a more reasonable estimate for each object. 

Designed for third graders, this worksheet is a perfect resource for students learning what mass is and what metric units are used to measure it. As learners gain a better understanding of the relative mass of a gram and a kilogram, they can become better at estimating the mass of objects in real life!
