Today the boys spent time investigating with magnets. We learned that a magnet is a material that produces a magnetic force called a magnetic field. Magnetism is an invisible force. The force attracts some but not all metals. Magnets have a north pole and a south pole. Opposite poles attract and like poles repel. First, we investigated how magnets attract and repel. Then we investigated in our classroom. Finally, we explored whether magnets can attract metals through other materials. The boys love our Science lessons and we had lots of fun conducting today’s experiments.
