________________________________ See Investigating Sheet Adapted from FOSS Project, Magnetism and Electricity Module Grades 3-4 Adapted from Cassidy, John Explorabook, A kid's Science Museum in a Book, Adapted from OPPS-Magnets Adapted from AIMS-Mostly Magnets Lesson 6 The Magnetic Field Objectives: Cognitive: Students will: understand the concept of the magnetic field understand that the magnet attracts through non-magnetic materials Process: Students will: report observations from previous investigation related to strength of attraction (Lesson 5) predict if a magnet can attract through a variety of non-magnetic materials (water, paper, fabric, glass jars, etc.) predict if a magnet attracts through magnetic material Materials: Magnets Containers of water, shaving cream, Tacks or paper clips Paper, wallpaper, aluminum foil, waxed paper, etc. Procedure / Key Questions / Discussion: Share results of previous investigations Did the magnet have to touch the paper clip in order to move it?
