Magnet Lab: Standards

1.
Standard/ Benchmark
Content Standard B:
-As a result of the activities in grades k-4, all students should develop an understanding of
  -Light, heat, electricity and magnetism
Benchmark
-Magnets attract and repel each other and certain kinds of other materials.


Learning Goals: What should Students know
TLW recognize that there are forces in the world that we cannot directly see but have an affect on things we do see.


Learning Performances: What do you want students to do to show they know?
Students will perform an activity that involves two previously magnetized needles. First they will place one needle point and one needle eye side by side on a piece of paper. (the point is magnetized, not the eye)  Next they will place both eyes side by side.

 2. The students will be able to show and understand that when two sides of the same charge are together, they repel and when opposites are together, they attract. They will be able to understand that magnets have a force that cannot be seen by the naked eye but they can see the needles move as a result of the force.
