About This Lesson
This Science Video Worksheet is one page and has an answer key in a very simple format that is designed for quick correction.
The video is an introduction to scientific instruments for Elementary and Middle School students: microscope, telescope, balance, graduated cylinder, metric ruler, thermometer and timer. The focus is on how to measure weight, volume, distance, temperature and time using the metric system.
Per NGSS, we do not define the term 'mass' for Elementary School but we introduce it. This video is only an introduction, it is not rigorous (e.g., we do not talk about a meniscus when reading a volume in a graduated cylinder).
We made this video and it is free to access on our YouTube channel, which is designated for children's content.
Here's a preview: 1 minute preview of "Scientific Instruments" educational science video. - YouTube
