Grade Two - Core Science Unit - Magnets

Unit overview:
In this unit students perform a variety of activities to learn about magnets. They determine the kinds of objects which are attracted to a magnet. They also experience the way in which magnets exert a force on some objects at a distance. Other related experiences allow students to discover that there are two poles on a magnet, and that those poles have either attractive or repulsive effects on the pole of a second magnet.

Ensure that each student has an opportunity to work with magnets, observing, making predictions, and recording their results.
