1st Grade Measurement Worksheets and Activities

In this measurement worksheet, students compare the weights of two objects using a balance scale. Learning how balance scales work helps students understand how to measure weight in units like grams or pounds. Worksheet instructions: Determine which object is heavier or lighter based on the balance scale. Circle the correct answer.
