| Full lesson | Create for a teacher a set of content for giving a lesson, beginning with the lesson plan. Each new block of materials must begin with an H1 heading (other subheaders must be H2, H3, etc). When you describe required pictures, write those descriptions in curly brackets, for example: {A picture of a triangle} |

|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Introduction to Weight | 5 | Begin with a discussion about weight. Ask students if they know what heavy and light mean. Use visuals to illustrate concepts. |
| 2 | Demonstration | 5 | Show students how to use a balance scale. Place a heavy object on one side and a light object on the other. |
| 3 | Hands-on Activity | 10 | Divide students into small groups. Provide them with objects to weigh. Each group uses the balance scale to compare weights. |
| 4 | Charting Results | 5 | Regroup and assist students in charting their findings on paper. Discuss the outcomes as a class. |
| 5 | Review and Conclusion | 5 | Summarise key points on weight, light, and heavy. Take questions and clarify concepts to ensure understanding. |
This lesson aligns with the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) framework which emphasizes understanding of the world, physical development, and mathematical concepts.
Students will take a simple worksheet home, where they will draw one light object and one heavy object they find at home. Parents will sign to confirm discussion about the objects, but students will not present their work in class to promote a relaxed atmosphere.
