Gauge (instrument)

Have you ever seen a speedometer in a car? That is a type of gauge! A gauge is an instrument that helps us measure things like how fast we are going, how much gas is left in the tank, or even how hot or cold something is.

Gauges can have different shapes and sizes, but they usually have numbers or markers on them to help us understand what they are measuring. Some gauges have moving parts, like a needle that moves along a scale when the measurement changes, and others have digital displays.

Overall, gauges are important tools that help us keep an eye on important information so we can make decisions about what to do next.
