Explore magnetic and non-magnetic materials and investigate the strength of magnets with this investigation flipbook.
Let’s Investigate Magnets!
Are your students learning about magnetism? This exciting topic has many opportunities for students to explore with hands-on materials to learn how different materials attract or repel from one another.
Teach Starter has created a printable flipbook that allows students to make predictions, research, and test the magnetism of different objects. To perform this activity, students will use a ruler to measure the distance of when an object begins moving towards the magnetic, thus exploring items with a stronger magnetic pull.
