Magnetic strength is different than the strength of a person who can lift a lot of weight or a material that can't break, like wood. Third graders are investigating how to find the strength of a magnet and they did so by asking some really great questions first! Which magnet is the strongest? Which magnet has the biggest magnetic force? Do bigger magnets mean more force? |
With limited materials, third graders planned and carried out an investigation to determine which magnet was the strongest. They had to collect data in a data table, graph it, and use the data to provide evidence and reasoning to support their claims. Way to go third graders! |
