Magnets: A Hands-On Science Unit Engaging, hands-on lessons for introducing primary students to magnets. Requires predicting, problem solving, observation, data collection, graphing, and cooperative learning. (From the A to Z Teacher Stuff Store - Download Now!)

Electricity & Magnetism	Lesson Plan
A series of experiments about electricity and magnetism http://web.archive.org/web/20040603203002/www.galaxy.net/~k12/electric... Grade Level(s): 3-5, 6-8 • Rating: 7  Votes: 26   Rate It

How Strong is Your Magnet?	Lesson Plan
This lesson follows Magnetic Pick-Ups. Students experimentally measure the strength of a magnet and graph how the strength changes as the distance from the magnet increases, and as the barrier (masking tape) is built between the magnet and an iron object. http://www.sciencenetlinks.com/lessons.cfm?Grade=3-5&BenchmarkID=4&Doc...

Magnetic Forces	Lesson Plan
Introduction to magnetic attraction, strength of force, and the magnetic forces of the earth. http://www.eduref.org/Virtual/Lessons/Science/Physical_Sciences/PHY020... Grade Level(s): 3-5   Rate It

Magnetic Pick-Ups	Lesson Plan
Students will gain an understanding that certain materials are attracted to magnets and some are not. http://www.sciencenetlinks.com/lessons.cfm?Grade=3-5&BenchmarkID=4&Doc... Grade Level(s): 3-5   Rate It

Magnets	Lesson Plan
Classify objects attracted and not attracted by magnets. Analyze materials of objects used. Predict the poser of a unit magnet. Make a nail magnet http://www.eduref.org/cgi-bin/printlessons.cgi/Virtual/Lessons/Science... Grade Level(s): 1-2, 3-5 • Rating: 6  Votes: 6   Rate It

Magnets - Polarity	Lesson Plan
Students will identify and describe the poles of a magnet. They will demonstrate how the poles interact with one another. http://teachers.net/lessons/posts/1.html Grade Level(s): K, 1-2, 3-5   Rate It

Magnets Unit	Lesson Plan
In this unit students perform a variety of activities to learn about magnets. (kinds of objects which are attracted to a magnet, magnets exert a force on some objects at a distance, there are two poles on a magnet, and those poles have either attractive or repulsive effects on the pole of a second magnet) http://www.sasked.gov.sk.ca/docs/elemsci/gr2ubesc.html Grade Level(s): 1-2   Rate It

Mickey's Magnets	Lesson Plan
Uses book, Mickey's Magnets. Students identify the two forces of a magnet-push and pull. http://www.eduref.org/cgi-bin/printlessons.cgi/Virtual/Lessons/Science... Grade Level(s): 1-2, 3-5   Rate It
