Last week, we learned about weight on a scale using ice and water. I had the kids predict which cup would weigh more or is heavier. When I used the word heavy, most of the kids understood it, but some a bit puzzled. So to help them understand heavy.... all the kids held both the ice and water cups in their hands. I used the word heavier, but I also followed up with which one is hard for you to hold up. Our prediction was correct! We then finished up by pouring the right amount of water to equal the weight of the ice in the cup. Smart kids!
