How do I use these activities?

This activity is a great way for children to explore and discover which materials are magnetic. By performing a simple investigation, they will learn how to make predictions and record their results. They will also be able to describe the physical properties of the materials they test. This resource aligns with the Science aspect of the National Curriculum of England.
