Lesson Five – Magnetic Force
This science scheme of work for Key Stage Two gets the children to identify and record how magnetism can work through a range of objects made from different materials that are at a distance from the magnet.
The class can select and record measurements to illustrate how a range of materials are attracted to magnets from different distances placed behind a selection of materials.
Download this teaching pack including a lesson plan, classroom activities and an interactive presentation to identify and record how magnetism can work through a range of objects made from different materials that are at a distance from the magnet
Activities in this teaching pack include a worksheet to observe and record test predictions and observations when working with magnets and a template to plan and record how magnetism can work on objects that are at a distance from the magnet.
The interactive presentation gets the children to explore how magnetism can work on objects that are at a distance from the magnet.
This lesson is part of a science scheme of work to get the children to practise conducting a range of fair tests to identify and compare different materials based on magnetism and friction that can occur between surfaces. There are teaching activities for shared learning, differentiated worksheets to support independent learning and interactive presentations to introduce concepts and key skills.
