P7B have started their Physics investigations by exploring how magnets work through a series of experiments!
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!
