Magnet Mania
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners explore the relationship between electric charges and magnetic fields.
Eddy Currents
Source Institutions
In this activity related to magnetism and electricity, learners discover that a magnet falls more slowly through a metallic tube than it does through a nonmetallic tube.
Space Weather Action Center
Source Institutions
In this interdisciplinary activity, learners create a Space Weather Action Center (SWAC) to monitor solar storms and develop real SWAC news reports.
Magnetic Seesaw
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners build a seesaw powered by magnets.
Create a Compass
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners use simple materials to build their own compass.
Magnetic Lines of Force
Source Institutions
With a magnet, iron fillings, and a bottle, you can create a cool demonstration about magnetic lines of force: the fillings will arrange themselves within the magnet's magnetic field.
Polar Opposites
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners make a 3-D model of magnetic fields by inserting a small, strong magnet into a sphere.
Invisible Investigations
Source Institutions
Using indirect observational methods, learners distinguish between charged and uncharged objects.
