Designing a Scale

School Groups

Have you ever been on a seesaw at a playground? How does a seesaw balance? After an online guided tour of the Suna and İnan Kıraç Foundation’s Collection of Anatolian Weights and Measures, we will talk about what balance is and study different types of scales and weighing machines. We will then go on to design our own scale using various materials, such as paper cups, hangers and threads.

Materials
Paper cups (2 pieces)
Clothes hanger (1 piece)
Various materials for weighing (things that can fit into paper cups, such as small toys or lentils, chickpeas or rice)
Thread (yarn, straw ropes, ribbons, etc.)
