Help me give my students the joy of discovering electricity and magnetism by donating these high quality magnets and materials. Students will explore magnetic fields and experiment with how they interact.

My Project
I will use the magnets and materials in this project to help my students make meaning with magnets. They will investigate magnetic fields of different magnet shapes, discover polarity, and investigate how magnetic fields interact. Students will also use the magnets to design "magic tricks" and mini games that will help them learn the design process and the parts of a game. Lastly, this magnet unit will help students in their study of atoms and elements. This study will lead them to a greater depth of understanding when understanding that electrons are crucial to the behavior of magnets and to the existence of electricity.
More than half of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
