Magnetic Levitation

Curated and Reviewed by Lesson Planet

In a short, but sweet film, physics pupils are exposed to diamagnetism and magnetic levitation. The concepts are explained in two minutes, supported by fun animation and clear narration. What makes this special, is that it teaches high schoolers about magnetism, while resources for elementary learners are more commonly found on this topic. This same publisher has a few physics-level magnetism videos, so make sure to look them up!
