Lesson 5: Marvellous Magnets

This week’s science learning outcome is to observe how magnets attract or repel each other and attract some materials and not others by making, playing and evaluating a magnetic game. In order to do this, children will need to identify materials that are attracted to magnets, use the force of magnetic attraction to make a magnetic game and explain how a magnetic game works by attracting materials. This week’s first task is for the children to challenge themselves and find out what they know about forces and magnets. They will need to match the numbers of the questions with the letters of the answers. Please ensure your child uses the PowerPoint to gather information about magnets before creating their own magnetic game!
