Magnetism is an invisible force that attracts
(pulls) or repels (pushes) other objects
(Bennet, 2011). Every magnet has two
poles, a north and south, with a magnetics
field travelling from the north pole to the
south pole and back again. As a result, the
magnetic forces are strongest at the poles
(Bennet, 2011).
Magnets also strongly attracted
ferromagnetic materials such as iron, nickel
and cobalt. Ferromagnetism are magnets
that people are exposed to most on a daily
basis. It is responsible for most magnetic
behaviour encountered in everyday life
(Walding, 2004).
PLoK
The children will explore this scientific
magnet concept by watching a video on
magnet forces. They will also explore this
concept by interacting with magnetic
experiments.
