Strength of Force in Magnets

Yesterday our second and third graders continued to learn about force in science, this time they used magnets. Small groups of students were given a paper maze glued onto cardboard along with a paperclip. Moving to different places in the classroom, students tested the strengths of different magnets and how well the magnets could work through the cardboard to pull the paperclip through the maze. Students loved testing out the many magnets and they could easily gauge which magnets were stronger than others. Below are a few pictures of the groups of second and third graders as they tested out the strengths of the magnets.
