Magnetic Spinner & Compass
Source Institutions
Learners use shop tools and various materials to construct a magnetic spinner and a compass.
Magnet Mania
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners explore the relationship between electric charges and magnetic fields.
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.
Floating Butterfly
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners create a cool floating animal using the science of magnetism. Learners discover what happens when a piece of magnetic metal enters a magnet's field.
Circles of Magnetism IV
Source Institutions
In this activity related to magnetism and electricity, learners observe as two parallel, current-carrying wires exert forces on each other.
Circles of Magnetism I
Source Institutions
In this activity related to magnetism and electricity, learners create a magnetic field that's stronger than the Earth's magnetic field.
Neato-Magneto Planets
Source Institutions
In this activity, teams of learners study magnetic fields at four separate stations: examining magnetic fields generated by everyday items, mapping out a magnetic field using a compass, creating model
Invisible Investigations
Source Institutions
Using indirect observational methods, learners distinguish between charged and uncharged objects.
Magnet Tower
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners build magnetic towers to explore the forces and properties of magnets.
Electromagnet
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners build an electromagnet using a nail, a cork, a battery, and electrical wire. Use this activity to demonstrate how electric currents produce magnet fields.
