A scale is a tool used to measure weight or size. It can also mean a series of steps or levels, like a scale of music.
You say 'scale' like this: skayl.
The word 'scale' comes from the Latin word 'scala', which means 'ladder' or 'staircase'.
The word 'scale' in Hindi is 'तराजू' (Tarājū).
Have you ever seen a fish swimming in the water? Imagine it has a shiny scale! Scales are like tiny armor that protect fish and help them glide through the water.
Just like how we wear clothes to stay warm, fish wear scales to stay safe. Some scales are smooth, while others are bumpy. If you look closely, you might see beautiful colors shining in the sunlight!
Next time you visit a pond or the ocean, keep an eye out for these amazing creatures and their sparkling scales. What colors do you think you’ll find?
