In this video, Mr. Edmonds sings to help students remember the units and the contrast between mass and weight (metric system). He also uses visuals as he sings. Mass involves the measure of the amount of matter in an object in grams (g) or kilograms ...(kg) and weight is the measure of gravity's pull on an object in Newtons (N). Some of the key vocabulary words include the following: mass, weight, grams, kilograms, newtons, balance, scale, and gravity. This is a great resource to help students master this important skill. Middle School and High School students will enjoy this fun, catchy tune. (3:12)

Gravity exerts a powerful force on all of us -- relentlessly pulling us toward Earth's surface. Everything we do, from standing up and running to getting dressed and eating breakfast, requires us to expend energy, and much of that energy goes toward ...our struggle against gravity. However, despite the powerful force that gravity exerts, we take it for granted precisely because of its constancy. This interactive resource from the Exploratorium gives you the opportunity to imagine how the differing gravities on other celestial bodies would affect your weight.

What happens when you jump in a moving elevator? Do you weigh more when you're going up and less when you're going down? Carol
Hedden explores the relationship between gravity, weight, and relative
motion, using a moving elevator to explain the f...ascinating physics. (03:35)
