Our Harvest Donations - thank you for your generosity.

 

A magnet activity that we did in class - have another go at home.

Magnets create a magnetic force that attracts materials with iron and steel in them.

This week we have been investigating magnetic forces. We found out that all pennies made before 1992 are not magnetic. All newer pennies are, do you know why? If you don't ask a child in year 3.

The further a penny is from the magnet the weaker the force. This is why we can twist the last penny if we blow on it.

   

We found out that we can use a tape measure to make money travel uphill!

We also investigated how many pennies we could pick up in one go. The stronger magnets could attract more pennies.

We tried to build large structures with our pennies. The further from the magnet you build your structure, the weaker the force is, so you have to plan your build carefully.

Forces Activity - Have a go at this year 3!

Investigating Forces

We began our investigation into forces by looking at toys and asking, why and how does the toy move, what forces act on the toy? Is friction acting on the toy? What is air resistance?

 Year 3 science is lots of fun.
