Magnet Detectives

Last week the children in Junior Infants A were exploring the topic of magnetism in science. The children went into role as magnet detectives, using their magnets and magnifying glasses to conduct investigations around the classroom. They identified lots of different items which the magnets could stick to. After lots of discussion, the children came to the conclusion that all of the items the magnet could stick to had some metal in them. Investigation complete!

Check out some pictures of the investigation below.
