Set up an experiment with a strong magnet to show how it lines up with the Earth's poles. You can tie a magnet to a yardstick that is resting on the backs of 2 chairs. Mark one end of the magnet and twist it on the string. They will see the marked end always turns to the north or south direction depending on which end you marked. Have the students go back to the resource material and find out why this happens.
Magnets have poles.
These poles are the strongest parts of a magnet. The poles are called the North and South poles. The ends or poles of the magnet line up with magnetic north and south of the Earth. Day 4 Use circle magnets and a pencil to demonstrate how magnets repel and attract each other. The student will think you are performing magic.
