Class members use mathematics in order to better understand magnetic forces and their interaction on charged particles. After a demonstration of the interaction between a magnet and an electron beam using a CRT computer monitor, learners...

Here are two electromagnetism homework assignments rolled into one. The first eight practice problems deal with the magnetic field and magnetic force exerted by current-carrying wires. The second set of seven problems are specific to...

After high schoolers have learned about electromagnetic induction, they can solve these 10 practice problems. They calculate magnetic field strength, magnetic force, electromotive force, and output voltage. This is a choice option as a...

Ask your class what they know about magnets, then take some time and explain basic magnetic properties. This presentation covers polarity, magnets in compasses, and magnetic force. It provides a quick hands-on exploration where kids...

Provide physical science explorers an overview of magnetism with this collection of slides. The third slide posts hyperlinks to websites that cover magnetic fields in detail, so ideally this presentation would be viewed by small groups...

Young scholars research world geography by participating in a science activity. In this magnets lesson plan, students examine a group of inanimate objects and predict which ones will be attracted by a magnetic force. Young scholars check...

Students explore magnetism. For this magnet lesson, students work in groups to predict which objects in a collection will be attracted to a magnet. Predictions are made, results are recorded, and conclusions are drawn.

Students explore magnetic force with a variety of materials. In this magnets lesson, students work in groups to determine if a magnet will attract a paper clip through various materials. Predictions are made and results are recorded and...

Fourth graders conduct an investigation in order to determine a way to change the strength of an electromagnet's magnetic force. After conducting "control" lifts with their electromagnet, groups make initial changes, record data, and...

Students explore what a magnetic force is and what kinds of objects are attracted to a magnet. They use a magnet to sort objects taht are and are not attracted to a magnet. Students then explain why the objects were or were not...

Sixth graders build a speaker as they investigate the roles of electricity and magnetism. They discover the properties of magnets, create an electromagnet, and determine the direction of a magnetic field. They show cause and effect...

Students construct their own magnet and wire device. In this inquiry instructional activity, students investigate the factors affecting the strength of magnetic forces. They manipulate different variable to determine their effect.

Students investigate magnets. For this magnetism lesson, students begin exploring magnets. Students study attraction and repulsion and discover the poles of a magnet.

Students create magnetic compass. In this science lesson plan, students test magnetic north using a needle, magnet, ball of clay, water, and piece of cork.

Students discover how magnetic force works. In this magnetic force lesson, students use vocabulary cards to review key terms and participate in an experiment with magnets. Students discover the biggest point of each object's force field.

For this electromagnet worksheet, students learn about how magnetic forces work in electromagnets and they answer questions about four diagrams of electromagnets.

In this magnet worksheet, students read about magnets. They test seven objects to see if a magnet will pick them up. They record predictions and results and draw conclusions.

In this forces worksheet, students calculate electric forces between objects, charge transferred, and potential difference. This worksheet has 8 problems to solve.

In this magnetism worksheet, learners review what magnetism is by matching 5 words to their definitions. Then students use a diagram showing the pattern of iron fillings around magnets to complete 4 short answer questions.

In this magnets instructional activity, students will experiment to see what materials attract or repel from magnets. Students will fill in the blank of 3 statements.

For this science worksheet, students discover the ability of magnets to attract and repel from a distance. Students perform 3 investigations with magnets and use them in a maze.

Fifth graders investigate the behavior of magnetism using magnets. They discuss magnetic force, and conduct an experiment, testing how many paper plates can be stacked together before the force of the magnetic field no longer affects a...

Fifth graders investigate the behavior of magnetism using magnets. They observe a demonstration, and conduct an experiment to demonstrate if the magnetic force pass through a container of water and remove objects from the water.

Students explore magnets through the five lessons of this unit. The everyday uses of magnets and an awareness of magnetic attraction form the basis of the skills presented in these lessons.
