Year 3 - Magnet Investigation

Investigating Magnets

Year 3 have been investigating different magnet strengths. The children began by: creating a hypothesis; making predictions; discussing equipment needed; writing down the method; discussing variables (which to keep the same/ change) to ensure fair testing and drew tables to record their results. They then tested out the magnets using: paper clips, rulers and a range of magnet types. Children then wrote up conclusions and linked this back to their predictions.
