Mass – Hefting

Watch Bert and Ernie

Poor Bert! L Ernie and Bert were hefting, which means that they were holding an object in their hands to decide if it is heavy or light. We usually hold the object on a flat hand and we can put an object on each hand at the same time to decide which is heavier or lighter. Today you will need a shoe. Heft it, is it heavy or light? Find 5 things in your house that are heavier and 5 things that are lighter than your shoe when you heft them. Draw a picture in your maths book of what you found. Hop onto Google Meet and show Ms D what you found and how you correctly heft items. (This will be an individual meeting, so if I reject your request to join the meeting, please try back a little later).
