A thorough investigation of magnetic levitation; this activity has four parts. First, physical scientists play with a wooden dowel and three disc magnets to review polarity and repelling action. Then they experiment with the strength of the force and the resulting distance between magnets. Middle school learners could take measurements for the comparisons. A worksheet is provided with procedures and analysis questions.
