• Compare and group together a variety of everyday materials on the basis of whether they are attracted to a magnet, and identify some magnetic materials.
• Science, Year 3, Forces & Magnets
• Observe how magnets attract or repel each other and attract some materials and not others.
• Science, Year 5, Properties & Changes of Materials
• Compare and group together everyday materials on the basis of their properties, including their hardness, solubility, transparency, conductivity (electrical and thermal), and response to magnets.
• Chunky, durable horseshoe magnets made from colourful plastic, perfect for educational exploration.
• Designed for a child to explore magnetism, these horseshoe magnets come in assorted colours, enhancing visual learning.
• Explore the world of magnetism with these vibrant horseshoe magnets, specifically designed to support Year 3 and Year 5 science curriculums. Crafted from sturdy plastic, these magnets facilitate effective demonstrations of magnetic forces in educational settings. They enable hands-on activities, allowing children to investigate and understand magnetic properties.
• In Year 3 settings, these magnets help children identify magnetic materials and explore the interactions between them, aligning with curriculum objectives to comprehend magnetic attraction and repulsion.
Advancing to Year 5, the magnets contribute to lessons on material properties, including conductivity and magnetic response. Through practical experiments, children can categorise materials based on their reactions to magnets, thereby enriching their scientific understanding and promoting explorative learning.
