Tidy Up Those Sloppy Force Fields!
It is just magnetic. This resource presents the concept of Earth's and another planet's magnetic field and how spacecrafts detect them. Learners study a problem using magnetometers and participate in three experiments to come up with a...
Curated OER
Magnetism
In this magnetism activity, students read about properties of magnets, permanent and temporary magnets, electromagnets, and magnetic fields. They match 10 terms about types of magnets with their definitions, they draw an electromagnet,...
Curated OER
Magnetism
For this magnets worksheet, students read about the properties of magnets, electromagnets, and magnetic fields. Then students complete 10 matching, 4 fill in the blank, and 8 word problems.
Curated OER
3-D Magnetic Field
In this magnetism worksheet, students build a 3 dimensional magnetic field by using a juice bottle, a test tube, iron fillings and a magnet. Students write a descriptive story about what they observe once their bottle is complete and...
Curated OER
Magnetic Car
In this magnetic car worksheet, students learn how to use simple household items to create a magnetic car. Students learn that magnets have two poles and when the same poles face each other it causes a force of repulsion which moves the...
Curated OER
Magnetic Energy
In this magnetic energy worksheet, students are given the formula to calculate the magnetic energy of an object. They use the formula to solve for the magnetic energy of the Earth, a geotail, the Sun, and a solar prominence given their...
Curated OER
Magnetic Storms
In this magnetic storms and Earth's magnetic field activity, students use a bar graph showing the Kp Index for planetary variability. Students use the bar graph to answer 3 questions about the solar storms and their Kp values.
Curated OER
Magnetic Forces and Kinetic Energy
In this magnetic forces and kinetic energy worksheet, students use the formula that relates the speed of an electron in a plasma cloud to its energy to find the speed of 6 different plasma cloud electrons. They answer 5 questions that...
Curated OER
Review of Magnetic Forces and Fields
In this physics worksheet, students answer 50 multiple choice questions on properties of and behavior of magnetic fields and forces.
Curated OER
Magnetism
In this science worksheet, learners apply themselves to the acquisition of new vocabulary while solving the crossword puzzle.
Curated OER
Magnetic and Non-Magnetic T-Chart
In this magnetic and non-magnetic worksheet, students experiment with objects to determine if they are magnetic or not and record their findings on the T-Chart. Students write an undetermined number of short answers.

Thrown for a Loop
Round and round it goes. Class members observe a current carrying loop in a magnetic field and calculate its associated torque. They then apply what they have learned to example problems to solve for the torque and to calculate the...
Curated OER
Attract or Repel?
Opposites attract with a fun science experiment on magnets. With a short paragraph on background knowledge, the lab sheet prompts third and fourth graders to choose which pairs of magnets will attract, and which pairs will repel. A...

Both Fields at Once?
An MRI uses both a magnetic and electricity, so how do the two interact with each other? Class members observe the effects on a charged particle when it is subject to both an electrical and magnetic field. The teacher background...
Curated OER
Attractive Alloys
Include a lab about alloys and magnets in your fourth grade science lesson. Young scientists read the necessary background knowledge about alloys, then choose which objects (a screw, a bell, scissors, or coins) will be attracted to...
Curated OER
Magnetic Units of Measurement
In this magnetic circuits worksheet, learners answer 16 questions about magnetic flux, resistance, voltage, current, and reluctance.
Curated OER
Metals Can be Attractive!
After reading a short paragraph about metals and magnets, young scientists circle the things they think will be attracted by a magnet. There are six objects for them to consider. A nice worksheet to help get a discussion on magnets and...
Curated OER
The Magnets in my House
In this magnets worksheet, students decide if different household items contain magnets. Students look at 9 items to determine if they have magnets or not.
Curated OER
Magnetic Attraction
In this magnets worksheet, students fill out a chart to record what is attracted and not attracted to a magnet. Students will experiment with different items to test the magnetic attraction and record the results.
Curated OER
Magnets
In this magnets worksheet, students use magnets and a compass to investigate the magnets. Students write down 5 discoveries that they make about their magnets.
