Gravity Exploration: KS2 Worksheet on Mass, Weight and Planetary Variations

Put theory into practice with our “Gravity Exploration” worksheet, a perfect companion to the Gravity Explored PowerPoint lesson. Tailored to the KS2 National Curriculum and ideal for international classrooms, this PDF resource provides a valuable tool for your students to solidify their understanding of gravity, weight, and mass.

Beginning with clear learning objectives and “I can” statements, this worksheet encourages students to grasp core concepts confidently. A practical table is included for students to record the weights of various objects under different planetary gravity conditions, demonstrating the key concept that weight varies with gravity, while mass remains constant.

The worksheet culminates with two important questions: “What is gravity?” and “How does it affect mass and weight?” These thoughtful prompts give students an opportunity to articulate their understanding and showcase their learning.

Utilise this resource to strengthen your teaching and provide a concrete learning experience that will captivate your students’ scientific curiosity.
