Investigating Why Some Materials Stick

What is this project about?

Students analyze their test results to find patterns in which materials attract magnets, and test whether pole orientation changes the pull. They compare findings with classes in other countries to evaluate whether the rules hold across different eve...

Project Activities

1

Magnet Pattern Kick-Off and Prediction Challenge

Students introduce themselves to the partner class, then predict which everyday objects will stick to a magnet and why. Teams record their guesses before testing begins.

Duration: 20 minutes
2

Test Materials and Pole Orientation with Partner Class

Teams test a range of everyday objects with bar magnets, record which ones attract, and check whether flipping the magnet's poles changes the pull. They share their results with the partner class and compare patterns across both countries.

Duration: 60 minutes
Delivery: Comparative Chart
3

Analyze Patterns and Evaluate the Rules Together

Using combined data from both classes, students look for patterns, decide whether the magnet rules hold for different objects, and identify any results that do not fit. They write a short explanation supported by evidence.

Duration: 25 minutes
Delivery: Research Brief
4

Joint Findings Showcase

Each team presents its strongest finding and whether the rules held across both classrooms. Students reflect on what surprised them and what they would test next.

Duration: 15 minutes
