Science experiments lesson 22: Magnets: magnetic or non-magnetic? · Set 576 · 40 questions

What you do (Iron sticks): 1. Put all the test objects on a tray. 2. Guess “magnetic” or “non-magnetic” for each and write it down. 3. Touch the magnet to each object and sort them into two groups. 4. Store the magnets in pairs and keep small magnets away from little children.
