Lay the cord in any shape on a non-magnetic surface. Divide the magnets evenly between the players. Make systematic and careful observations and, where appropriate, take accurate measurements using standard units, using a range of equipment. Combine ceramic magnets with hardware like nuts and bolts, and see where your imagination takes you! Get tips for this magnetizing art project at the link below. Following the shortest player, each player lays one of their magnets in the play area, without letting the magnets KLUSTER together! Even the clasps are magnetic? The videos suggest so. I would worry that if I dropped this bag the the magnets could be pulled apart by force and then everything will come flying out where as a zip at least is a physically bound together structure.

Magnet Maze Game (via Cakies) This inventive game takes a few basic materials like a paper plates and turns them into engaging games. See how long it’ll take for the rabbit to find the carrots! recording data and using it to create a bar graph of the amount of force needed to pull different weights. Investigate how it is forces that make things move (pushes and pulls) and that magnetic forces can move things at a distance without forces touching.

Play a game in teams to explore all the different ways forces can act on a variety of everyday objects. Iron is magnetic, so any metal with iron in it will be attracted to a magnet.

You receive the letter from Mr Newton of the British Scientific Society and agree to help him develop some exciting activities on the theme of Magnetism for their annual science fair. But first you need to get to grips with what a force is! If you try to put two magnets together with the same poles pointing towards one another, the magnets will push away from each other. We say they repel each other. Different poles attract exploring the ways forces act on a range of every day objects, including toy cars on different surfaces – comparing movement of vehicles and conducting a fair test. Marble runs are tons of fun, but store-bought sets can be pricey. Make your own with cardboard tubes and magnets instead. When two of the same poles are placed close together they repel (push apart) each other. When two different poles are close, they attract (pull together) each other.
