Electricity and Magnetism Formative Assessment #1
A formative assessment is a great tool for planning further instruction. The fifth lesson of a 14-part series exploring magnetism and electricity provides questions to gauge current understanding of magnetic fields, compasses, and...
Curated OER
Fish and Clips
Youngsters test magnetic strength by measuring the mass of paper clips that they "hook" with a magnet. Your first and second graders should love the hands-on activities associated with this plan. The reproducible materials are quite good...
Curated OER
Paper Clip Walk
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...
Curated OER
Exploring Magnets
Second graders experiment with magnets. In this magnet lesson, 2nd graders attach a magnet to several different objects to see what it sticks to. They place objects in between a magnet and metal to see if the magnetic force still works.
Curated OER
Magnetism
In this magnets worksheet, students read about the properties of magnets, electromagnets, and magnetic fields. Then students complete 10 matching, 4 fill in the blank, and 8 word problems.
Curated OER
Magnetism
In this magnetism activity, learners read about properties of magnets, permanent and temporary magnets, electromagnets, and magnetic fields. They match 10 terms about types of magnets with their definitions, they draw an electromagnet,...
Curated OER
Magnetic Field
High schoolers explore how compass and Gauss meter detect a magnetic field. In this physics lesson, students build their own Gauss meter and sensor based on given procedure. They cite real world applications of magnetism.
Curated OER
Introduction to Magnetism and Electronics
Students are introduced to the concepts of magnetism and electronics. As a class, they walk through the steps of the scientific method and define new vocabulary. In groups, they are given a bag of objects and they are to separate them...
Curated OER
TE Activity: Yogurt Cup Speakers
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...
Curated OER
Magnetic Energy
In this magnetic energy worksheet, students are given the formula to calculate the magnetic energy of an object. They use the formula to solve for the magnetic energy of the Earth, a geotail, the Sun, and a solar prominence given their...
Curated OER
Magnets
Second graders classify objects and create hypotheses regarding their magnetic properties. They watch a video about magnets and finally use a magnet to test their hypotheses created earlier.
Curated OER
Push and Pull Magnets
Fifth graders pull a paper clip sitting on paper with a magnet beneath the paper. They experiment to see what happens if they substitute the paper with thicker paper and other materials (plywood, glass, foil, etc.)
Curated OER
Magnetism
In this science learning exercise, high schoolers apply themselves to the acquisition of new vocabulary while solving the crossword puzzle.
Curated OER
Magnetic Insulators
In this magnetic insulators worksheet, students use magnets, a compass, paper and more to observe magnetic force. Students then answer 3 questions.
Curated OER
Introduction to Magnets
Young scholars explore magnetism, electromagnetism, and static electricity through a series of activities and experiments. For this magnets lesson, students use magnets to observe the forces of attraction and repulsion between different...
Curated OER
Magnetic Levitation
High schoolers conduct a series of experiments on magnetic levitation. For this physics lesson, students discover how Maglev trains operate. They explain how magnetism make even simple objects levitate.
Curated OER
Magnetic Car
In this magnetic car worksheet, students learn how to use simple household items to create a magnetic car. Students learn that magnets have two poles and when the same poles face each other it causes a force of repulsion which moves the...
Curated OER
Magnets
Learners explore magnetism by observing a series of 8 magnet "tricks" performed by the instructor. For this magnets lesson, students predict which items will be attracted to a magnet and experiment to see if they predicted correctly....
Curated OER
Magnetism
Students examine the concept of magnetism by doing several activities using magnets and compasses. They explore poles and polar repulsion and attraction.
Curated OER
Electricity and Magnets
Fifth graders find examples of magnets in or around their homes and make a list. They discover that some motors use magnets and make a simple motor using magnets, a battery and copper wire. They add to their magnet list.
Curated OER
Magnets: They Are Totally Attractive
Middle schoolers classify objects that magnets are attracted to and aren't attracted to. They also magnetize metal. They construct and use a compass. They develop a product which show they explain the properties of magnetism.
Curated OER
Discovering Magnetic Fields
Fifth graders examine the different types of magnets (bar, horseshoe, disc, ball, etc.) and experiment with the magnets and iron filings to discover the magnetic fields of each type of magnet.
Curated OER
Magnetic Fields and Bermuda Triangles
Young scholars map magnetic fields of a magnet using a compass and predict where fields cancel each other to create 'Bermuda Triangles'. In this magnetism lesson, students use a compass to map the magnetic field of a magnet. They explain...
