This Grade 2 science worksheet shows which tools measure solids, liquids, and gases. Students complete nine fill-in-the-blank questions about rulers, measuring cups, balloons, scales, and thermometers. A matching section connects each tool to the state of matter it best measures. Grade 2 learners strengthen measurement vocabulary while applying states of matter concepts to real science instruments they will use in class experiments.
Style:
States of Matter
Part A: Fill in the Blank
Write the missing word or number on each line.
1. A ruler is used to measure the length of a solid like a block.
2. A measuring cup helps us find how much juice or milk is in a recipe.
3. A balloon can show that a gas takes up space when you blow it up.
4. A kitchen scale tells us how heavy a solid apple is in grams.
5. A graduated cylinder has line marks to measure liquid volume.
6. A measuring tape can bend to measure the distance around a round solid.
7. A weather balloon carries tools high up to measure gases in the sky.
8. Milliliters (mL) are units we use for measuring liquids.
9. A weather thermometer measures the temperature of air, a gas around us.
Part B: Matching
Match each item on the left to the correct answer on the right.
1. Match each item to its correct answer.
Ruler
→ measures length of a solid
measures how much liquid fills it
Measuring cup
→ measures how much liquid fills it
captures and holds a gas
Balloon
→ captures and holds a gas
measures length of a solid
Kitchen scale
→ measures mass of a solid
measures mass of a solid
