Process (How to do the activity)
Give the magnets to students and check the properties of magnets. Ask the students properties of magnets. Give two magnets and a magnetic needle to students group (4-5students). Tell check the properties of magnets.
Ask magnetic lines of force using phet tool of magnets and electromagnet.
Developmental Questions (What discussion questions)
- What is magnet?
- Is magnet attract all materials?
- What we say the material which are attracted by magnet?
- If not attracted by magnet?
- In which direction bar magnet rest when freely suspended it. or magnetic needle or Mariner's compass.
- Recognize the north and south poles of magnet.
- Is north-north or south-south attracted?
- Is north-south repelled?
- What happened when kept the bar magnet near the magnetic needle or mariner's compass?
