Primary natural science

Students Kit ‘Measurement of temperature, weight and length’


The kit contains a complete collection of materials for the easy use on the primary level where the measuring of temperature, weight and length are explored.
 
The kit is well applicable for science and mathematical lessons. The pupils will acquire basic knowledge about measuring systems and predefinitions. They also practise the use of measuring instruments and learn to choose the appropriate equipment.
 
The reason for different measuring system is clarified and important scientists are mentioned specifically.
 
The manual contains 22 experiment descriptions which can be carried out with the materials from the kit.
 
For all experiments easily comprehensible worksheets are supplied.

The picture shows a colorful seesaw with a red base and yellow bowls, used for educational experimentation. Next to the seesaw is a transparent container with several orange elements, probably for weight determination.
The picture shows instructions for building a thermometer for students, with information and explanations for stations A2 and A3. It also lists the steps to ensure that the thermometer works correctly.
The picture shows an experiment set with various glass containers, a measuring cylinder, red and yellow clamps, a blue object, a transparent container and a straw. The set is placed on a manual for experiments and promotes learning in the natural sciences.
The picture shows an experiment kit consisting of a container of liquid, a glass tube and a small measuring cup. Everything is arranged on a bright orange background, which makes the equipment stand out.
The picture shows two children at a table experimenting with different objects. One child is holding an apple and the other an orange on a scale while they examine other materials such as pens and decks of cards.
The picture shows two children experimenting together on a table scale. Various small objects are lying on the table and the children appear to be comparing the weights.
In the picture, two children are conducting an experiment. One child wearing a green t-shirt is measuring the water level in a glass with a red measuring device while the other child is watching attentively.
The picture shows two children standing at a table dipping their fingers into three glasses of liquid. The glasses are labeled and appear to be part of an experiment investigating various substances.
The picture shows a student set on the topic of "measurement" from Cornelsen Experimenti, which deals with temperatures, weights and lengths. The cover shows a group activity of children experimenting with different materials.
The image shows a carefully arranged collection of experiment tools, including yellow cutters and a thermometer, resting on a green foam pad. These materials are designed for use in education and encourage hands-on learning experiments.
The picture shows two precision scales with orange handles, which are placed in a green foam insert. In the background you can see other experimental equipment and accessories that are suitable for educational purposes.
The image shows a selection of experimental equipment, including measuring instruments and transparent containers, neatly arranged in a green foam insert. The equipment is ideal for science education and experiments in schools.
The picture shows a material list for the "Measuring" experiment kit, which is used to equip six groups of students. The list contains various materials and their order numbers that are needed for experiments in education.
The picture shows a "measuring master certificate", which serves as confirmation that a person can operate certain measuring devices independently. The document text is predefined and leaves space for the name and further information.
The picture shows instructions from an experiment manual for using beam balances. It describes the stations for weighing and adding up weights and lists the materials required.

The children build a thermometer themselves.


Children enjoy making and using this functional model to practice alone or with a partner. It shows two thermometers at the same height.


We will shortly provide you with a description of the experiment at this point.


The name of the station already suggests it: It is intended for the children who have mastered measuring with a thermometer.


While building this very simple yet functional scale model, children will learn a lot about beam scale technology.


In this type of balance, you do not compare the mass to be weighed with another (that of the weights), but with the change of a spring.


The spring scale can be used to quickly weigh many satchels and start a fruitful conversation. In order for the children to be able to independently understand the facts according to the model of learning at stations, the text includes a table that provides a rough guide to how much 10% of one's own body weight is.


The aim of this station sheet is to answer the question that children like to ask: How does the manufacturer of yardsticks and rulers know what a meter is?


As is usual with station work, the children work out the correct use of the tape measure from the station sheet before taking the suggested measurements. Of particular importance, of course, are the application of the zero point and the tensioning of the tape. Some children also need to be sure about the division of the tape into cm and mm.


The goal of working with this station sheet is to provide countless measurement activities with high motivation. With this simple device, the children can make measurements that are not possible for them with the rulers and triangles they usually use at school: Diameters (inside and outside) depths, thicknesses, lengths that are complicated to determine.


Being able to recreate the coveted caliper out of the box is highly motivating. The model also works amazingly well and has proven itself in many elementary school classrooms.


To measure is to compare. Units of measurement represent agreements about what to compare with, how the units are defined, and how or after whom they are named. This is the insight that this station provides.


The goal of working with this station sheet is hands-on measurement training. Although the children themselves will find many measurement locations in the classroom, 19 tasks are provided here to ensure maximum measurement and systematic note-taking.


If you want to lead children in the long term to understand how to handle technical devices they are still unfamiliar with, this is an opportunity to do so.
First of all, they deal with the "instructions for use" for the scales, whereby they follow each step on the scales in an active way.


Children use it often enough to achieve the desired training success and learn elementary things about measuring tapes while gluing them together.
