What is Weight?
- Weight tells us how heavy something is.
- It is how much gravity pulls on an object.
- We measure weight in pounds (lbs) or kilograms (kg).
Examples:
- Picking up a backpack:
- When you lift a backpack, you can feel how heavy it is.
- Some backpacks are light, and some are heavy!
- Using a scale:
- At the store, you can see how much fruits weigh on a scale.
- Like if you have 2 pounds of apples.
- Measuring yourself:
- Stepping on a bathroom scale tells you how much you weigh.
- It helps you see if you have grown or changed!
