The math balance encourages kids to explore measurement and weight. Place math manipulatives, counting bears, or math counters in the balancing scale to learn about their weight difference. Students will learn early mathematical and scientific concepts such as inequalities, mass, volume, operations, counting, subtracting, and adding. The durable clear plastic pan balance allows children to explore volume and compare solids and liquids. Kids get to develop observation and estimation skills while exploring volume and measurements. The equivalency markings allow students to assign less than, greater than, or equal to symbols to their balance setup. Teachers, parents, or kids can easily demonstrate mass equivalency. Made from high quality plastic, the school balance pan can be assembled and disassembled in 3 quick and easy steps. The Nestable Pan Balance features an efficient, compact design that reduces storage space by 80%. Perfect for the classroom, daycare, or homeschool.
