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.

In this physics activity (page 8 of the PDF), learners will make their very own working compass.

In this activity, learners use simple materials to build their own compass.

In this activity, learners will observe magnetic properties and sort objects by them. This activity uses everyday items to teach learners about magnetic forces, poles and properties of magnets.

In this activity about magnetism (page seven of the pdf), learners experiment with magnets to better understand how magnetic fields work.

In this activity related to magnetism and electricity, learners observe as two parallel, current-carrying wires exert forces on each other.

Learners use the current flowing in a wire to create a magnetic field that turns a magnet. Learners can use this property of electromagnetism to build a magnet-powered pinwheel.

In this activity related to magnetism and electricity, learners create a magnetic field that's stronger than the Earth's magnetic field.
