Hello my wonderful Grade 5 superstar! πŸ‘‹

I'm Kashef and today we're learning about Kilograms (kg)! One kilogram is 1,000 grams. We use kilograms to measure heavier things like your school bag, a bag of potatoes, or even a small dog. Ready to get heavy with kilograms? Let’s go! πŸš€

🧠 What is a Kilogram?

1 kilogram (kg) = 1,000 grams (g)
