On October 4, 2008, we did an activity with Mr. Keyser. The activity was with magnets. Each table was given four magnets, seven pieces of paper, iron filings, and another piece of paper for drawing. We placed a sheet of paper over a magnet, poured iron filings on the paper, and observed what happened.
This is what had happened: the iron filings moved to the shape of the invisible magnetic field. After that, we drew out the magnetic field on the piece of paper for drawing. Then it was show time. We took a magnet, held it up to certain items, to find out if they were magnetic or not.
Fortunately, all the items we held up to a magnet were magnetic. Tune in later for another story about magnetism.
