Hot Equator, Cold Poles
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners use multiple thermometers, placed at different angles, and a lamp to investigate why some places on Earth's surface are much hotter than others.
Make Your Own Compass
Source Institutions
In this physics activity (page 8 of the PDF), learners will make their very own working compass.
Magnetic Pendulum
Source Institutions
In this activity about magnetism (page 15 of the PDF), learners will explore how opposite and similar magnetic poles affect a swinging (pendulum) magnet.
Magnetic Seesaw
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners build a seesaw powered by magnets.
Atoms and Matter (K-2)
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners explore atoms as the smallest building blocks of matter. With adult help, learners start by dividing play dough in half, over and over again.
Does it Stick?
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners will observe magnetic properties and sort objects by them. This activity uses everyday items to teach learners about magnetic forces, poles and properties of magnets.
Magnetisphere
Source Institutions
In this activity about magnetism (page seven of the pdf), learners experiment with magnets to better understand how magnetic fields work.
Magnet Tower
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners build magnetic towers to explore the forces and properties of magnets.
Take Me to the (Magnet) Races
Source Institutions
In this activity about magnetism (page 11 of the pdf), learners will experiment with magnets to explore how opposite poles attract and similar poles repel in magnetism.
