Forces surround us! Whether we can physically see them or not, they affect us in our daily lives constantly. Whether the force is gravity, the attraction between two magnets, or the pull of static electricity between a balloon and a sweater, forces truly influence our lives. Third graders will be looking at the effects of balanced and unbalanced forces on the motion of an object and the cause and effect relationships of electric or magnetic interactions between two objects not in contact with each other. They will then able to apply their understanding of magnetic interactions to define a simple design problem that can be solved with magnets.
