This resource uses an investigation into whether everyday objects are magnetic or not to develop the language skills of prediction and expressing an opinion. The teaching notes include guidance on how to run the investigation which are supported by the powerpoints which include pictures of the objects to...
From the Institute of Physics, this resource provides extensive teacher guidance and suggested classroom activities to support the teaching of:
• Exploring magnets
• Electromagnets at work
Each topic is explored from the following perspectives:
• The physics narrative explains the physics...
In Unit 5 of the Geology: Structure of the Earth series, produced by Northumberland County Council, students investigate the Earth's magnetic field. In particular, they discover how small traces of magnetism, preserved in rocks for millions of years, can allow geologists to plot the former positions of continents...
Produced by The Centre for Industry Education Collaboration (CIEC), these resources help to put curriculum science in a real life context. The activities provide opportunities for children to extend their understanding of electricity by applying it to the concepts of electricity generation and its use in the...
This resources investigates how electrical energy is generated from renewable and non-renewable sources.
Suggested learning outcomes include:
- To know the difference between a renewable and a non-renewable source of energy.
- To understand how electrical energy is generated from at least...
These diagnostic questions and response activities (contained in the zip file) support students in being able to:
- Identify when an electrostatic force is acting in familiar situations.
- Describe how objects with a positive or negative charge attract or repel other charged objects.
- ...
These diagnostic questions and response activities (contained in the zip file) support students in being able to:
- Describe the heating effect of current on a conducting wire.
- Predict changes to current through transmission lines using P = I x V.
- Calculate power dissipated by a wire...
In this Science upd8 activity students use their understanding of simple circuits, electricity and magnetism to diagnose and fix problems with the running of a magnetic train in a theme park.
These diagnostic questions and response activities (contained in the zip file) support students in being able to:
- Identify magnetic materials that are attracted to both the north- and south-seeking-poles of a magnet.
- Describe the rules of attraction and repulsion between two magnets.
- ...
This series of activities from NASA take a mathematical approach to looking at magnetism. They are intended as supplementary problems for students looking for additional challenges in mathematics and physical science from age 14 to 19 years.
The problems were created to be authentic glimpses of modern...
This activity provides a fun way to explore magnetism. It involves the simple task of using a magnet to guide a coin through a maze drawn on the side of a plastic bottle. There are plenty of opportunities to think and talk about how magnetism works, and why magnets only attract certain materials.
Learning...
This resource, from the Royal Observatory Greenwich, includes a short video about rocks from space, and then a short activity sheet that students can use to discuss the difference between magnetic and...
This is one of the 14 Background Books published for Stage III of the Nuffield Chemistry Sample Scheme. The books were highly illustrated and designed to be attractive. This book introduces thermodynamic concepts and applies them the a variety of types of chemicals cells.
There are seven parts to this book...
