Magnet Magic Made Easy
Created by Shaunak Ghosh
In just half an hour you’ll uncover the invisible force that makes fridge magnets stick and toy trains click. You’ll see how magnets push, pull, and choose their favorite materials—and you’ll be ready to predict which objects will snap to a magnet every time.
Requirements
- Know that objects can push or pull
- Have handled a household magnet (e.g., fridge magnet)
What you'll learn
- Identify at least three household items that use magnets
- Explain attraction and repulsion using simple field-line ideas
- Predict whether two magnets will pull together or push apart
- Sort common objects into magnetic and non-magnetic groups and justify the choice
