During this lesson, we...

• Tested various magnets to find their north and south poles, observing how they attracted or repelled each other.
• Magnetised other objects, creating a paper clip chain using a magnet.
• Explored which items are magnetic, including discussing the use of magnets to find out which coins are fake. 
• Plotted the magnetic field using iron filings through different surfaces - paper, card and wood.
• Compared the strength of magnets to attract objects from a distance.

Our Inspire Lead Mrs. Craig also was on hand to help pupils understand how to showcase their learning by creating their own app on Keynote using iPads. Have a look at our photos below!
