Learners explore magnetic attraction. For this magnets lesson, students participate in an interactive whiteboard activity in which objects are dragged onto a virtual table and categorized as to whether they are "repelled" or "attracted"...

Students participate in several activities that allow them to better understand magnetism.  For this exploratory lesson students take part in different activities to help them to better understand magnetic fields, circuits and...

Fifth graders explore the components of a compass and how it is utilized to determine geographical directions. The magnetic field of Earth and the magnet used to magnetize the needle used in the experiment are compared and contrasted in...

Second graders research the design of and purpose of magnets. They investigate a group of objects to discover which things are attracted to magnets. Observe the effect that lodestone has on iron fillings. Summarize observations.

In this science worksheet, students identify magnetic and non-magnetic items. They match 8 items to their definitions, and answer 6 short answer questions in which they tell what they know about magnets and the electrical method.

Students create a magnetic field.  In this investigative lesson students design their own magnetic field so that they can see how magnetism and electricity work.

Students apply concepts of magnetism to help them understand the production of solar flares. In this solar flare instructional activity, students complete activities and graphic organizers to help them learn about magnetic fields on the...

Fourth graders investigate magnetism and the magnetic force.

Sixth graders investigate averages and statistics by discovering magnet strengths.  In this magnet experiment instructional activity, 6th graders utilize different magnets and attempt to attract different materials to them....

Fourth graders, when working with magnets, make a prediction about what will happen if you put two ring magnets on an upright pencil, with 100% accuracy. They also experiment with magnets on poles to see which one pushes the other one away.

Students investigate magnets and how they work. They read and discuss the book, What Makes a Magnet and record their observations as they complete activities. After exploring the magnet set, they record their predictions and results...

Students explore the field of nanotechnology by examining magnetic field strength in ferrofluids. They use probes attached to a computer program to determine the relationship between magnetic field strength and magnetic field lines.

In this magnetic Earth worksheet, students learn how a compass works with the magnetic poles of the Earth. This worksheet has 4 short answer questions.

Students investigate magnetic forces. In this electromagnetic lesson, students explore magnetic forces, magnetic fields, and the movement of current through a variety of activities.

Students examine the properties of magnets and electromagnets.  In this magnets lesson students create an electromagnet and use it to do work. 

Young scholars explore magnetic fields. In this science lesson, students create a magnetic field using electricity. Young scholars observe the effect of a magnetic field on the compass needle.

Learners explore naturally magnetic elements. In this magnets lesson, students examine the periodic table of elements. Learners discover the parts of an atom and determine which three elements are magnetic.

Learners examine magnets; what they are made of, how they work and where they come from.

Second graders read and discuss the book "What Magnets Can Do." They recall the explanations of magnet, attract, repel, and magnetic poles from their reading. They work in pairs to discover the properties of magnets using a magnet and...

Students are introduced to the attraction and repulsion of magnetic forces. In groups, they observe how the forces react with different materials and record their data. They develop their own conclusions about the poles of magnets and...

In this north and south magnetic poles learning exercise, students read about the presence of auroras over the earth's magnetic poles as opposed to the geographic poles. Students use 2 photographs taken by the IMAGE FUV and the Polar...

In this magnetic field worksheet, students test a compass's magnetic field against a magnet and see how far it lasts. Students follow 6 sets of directions.

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