Weight Games

The EQUAL WEIGHT game is an activity that helps students become comfortable with weights, as displayed in ounces, pounds and tons.

 

 

 

 

Equal Weigt Example small

Students first select three bars that display equal weights. After they have selected three bars of equal weight, students must then determine if the remaining bars weigh more than (heavier) or less than (lighter) the three equal weights.

Round 1: 1 oz. to 80 oz. - shown in ounces (oz) and pounds (lb).
Round 2: 1 oz. to 160 oz. - shown in ounces (oz) and pounds (lb).
Round 3: 1/2 ton to 50 tons - shown in pounds (lb) and tons (ton).
Round 4: 1/4 ton to 100 tons - shown in pounds (lb) and tons (ton).


The Equal Weight game intensifies as player's skill increases.

Every 60 points a player earns causes a level change. Levels 1 & 2 allow an unlimited number of mistakes.

Every five games the challenge-level increases: in Games 1 to 5, you must select three equal weights from the four bars; in Games 6 to 10 students will be presented with five bars and in Games 11 to 15 there will be six bars to choose from.
