The Science Behind the Science
Magnetism is created by the motion of electrical atoms. When all of the electrons in an element spin in the same direction, they have the potential to become magnetic. They can only become magnetic, however, when they enter the magnetic field of another magnet, so an existing magnet is needed to create a new magnet.
Iron is magnetic, therefore any alloy, such as steel which contains iron, is also magnetic. Other metals which are magnetic are nickel, cobalt, and a few rare earth metals.
Some animals can sense magnetism and use it to navigate around the world.
Fun fact: Farmers feed cows "cow magnets" to collect pieces of scrap metal that the cow may have swallowed by accident.
To identify and name a variety of everyday materials, including wood, plastic, glass, metal, water, and rock.
Planet Earth - Energy sources and sustainability - I am aware of different types of energy around me and can show their importance to everyday life and my survival. SCN 1-04a Forces, electricity and waves - Forces - By exploring the forces exerted by magnets on other magnets and magnetic materials, I can contribute to the design of a game. SCN 1-08a
Forces and Energy: the study of energy, its origin, storage and transfer and the work it can do; the study of forces; the application of scientific understanding through inventions and machines.
