What is magnetism?

Video Response

Can you get your magnets to float/ levitate?

Breakout rooms will be open for anyone who wants to work together without the interruptions of the big room. These are optional.

What does participation look like in the Breakout rooms: Unmute when you go into the room. Share ideas. Feel free to put your camera on as you experiment. Don't forget to talk it out! What did you use, what did you not need?

Open Video Recorder

Share with the group in chat, or on mic- were you successful?

Why were you successful? What happened to make you unsuccessful?



What did you learn?

Let's see about attraction. Grab these materials:

bar magnets

ring magnets

Hold the bar magnets one in each hand. Face the two Red sides together and try to make them touch. Now try the blue. Finally, try two different colors. Do this with the ring magnets as well.

Write down your results!

Hotspot

Magnets have 2 poles that always exist in a pair.

The North pole is positive and the South pole is negative.

Magnetism is a force between a magnet and some metals.

A Magnet is an object that produces a magnetic force.

Looking at the picture which do you think is the North Pole?

Atoms make up everything.

Atoms are made of subatomic particles that are responsible for magnetism.

How do magnets work?

Open Ended

Let's see about attraction. Grab these materials:

bar magnet

ring magnet

colored chip

Now hold the bar magnet. Move the colored chip around the magnet. Where is the chip attracted to? Where is it repelled from?

• Protons (+) Positive particle in the nucleus

• Neutrons (0) Neutral particle in the nucleus
  Electron (-)

• Negatively charged in the electron cloud.

  • Magnets have electrons that spin in the same direction

2 metal washers

Place both metal washers with their edges attracted to the same pole of a bar magnet.

Use your fingers to squeeze the washers toward one another.

What happens?

• The washers pull together

  attracted

• The washers push apart

  repelled

• The washers spun around

• Something else- will put in the chat
