Examples and practice questions will help real-life understanding of the Principle of Moments concept. These great slides define the types of levers and pivots, and then give examples of the typical seesaw situations that help the practice of calculations.  2 links are given to "eureka" movies on Youtube that will activate prior knowledge about weight and mass. There are some nice animations that your students will enjoy.
