Description

This activity for grades 1 and 2 introduces students to magnets by having them test different objects to see which ones are attracted to a magnet and which are not. Students learn to observe and record their results, and they begin to make simple comparisons and predictions based on what they discover. The activity also encourages them to notice patterns in materials that are magnetic, helping them understand basic ideas about how magnets work through hands-on exploration.
