The Triple Beam Balance Activity is an engaging educational exercise designed to develop students' understanding of measuring mass. It provides an opportunity for students to visualize and practice mass measurement in a fun and interactive way. This activity is available in a digital format (Google Sheets) and printable PDF, providing flexibility for educators. An answer key is included.
In the digital activity, students will answer 16 questions requiring them to determine the desired mass shown on the triple beam balances, with immediate feedback on which answers are correct. In the print activity, students are given the mass and must draw a line on each beam of the triple beam balance to show the given mass for each question. 
 
Whether online through Google Sheets or on paper, this activity fosters familiarity with measuring mass. It allows students to practice using a triple beam balance and to develop their skills by simulating the experience digitally. By engaging in this activity, students will enhance their knowledge of mass measurement, gain proficiency in using a triple beam balance, and reinforce their understanding of the principles behind mass and balance. 
 
The Triple Beam Balance Activity can be used in science classrooms, as part of STEM programs, or as an engaging at-home learning exercise.
