Hello my wonderful Grade 5 superstar! 👋
I'm Kashef and today we're learning about Grams (g)! A gram is a small unit we use to measure mass (how heavy something is). There are 1,000 grams in 1 kilogram. We use grams for light things like an apple or a chocolate bar. Ready to weigh things with grams? Let’s go! 🚀
🧠 What is a Gram?
1 gram (g) is very light — about the mass of a paperclip or a small grape.
500 g = half a kilogram
⚖️ When Do We Use Grams?
✅ Weighing fruit or vegetables at the store
✅ Ingredients for baking (250 g flour)
✅ Small toys or school supplies
✅ Letters and packages at the post office
