You don’t usually notice them because, by the time they land, they’re about the size of small pebbles. This is more of a collection than an experiment, although you can certainly use meteorites …
Objective This fourth grade science project is designed to introduce young students to the concept of magnetism by using everyday items they are most likely already familiar with. Materials Recommend groups of 3 to 5. You will need the following for each lab station: About 6 Ft bare (no insulation) light gauge electrical wire About …
A Fourth Grade Science Project: Compass Deflection Does a compass always have to point North? If not, why not? What if we propose that it points in the direction of the stronger magnetic field? How could we prove that? Earth’s magnetic field is certainly there, but as we saw in the magnetic science projects …
This second grade science project is designed to introduce young students to the concept of magnetism by using everyday items they are most likely already familiar with. Many of the items that you need for this experiment will be lower in cost and may even be in your home already. If you’re looking for …
This second grade science project is designed as a follow-on to the make a magnet experiment above. We show how to make a compass out of common everyday items, and continue introducing young students to the concept of magnetism. Materials Paperclips Strong Bar magnet Compass Small block of Styrofoam Small cork, cut so it will …
Kindergarten science projects? I know it’s early, but I also realize kindergarten is a wonderful age of discovery – not so much on the why of it, but the “wow” of it all. Remember? If not, all that is needed is to watch your preschool age son, grandson, daughter or granddaughter for about 5 minutes …
A New Look At The World Around Us! Magnet Second Grade Science Projects Series One of the earlier projects discusses what a compass does, but if the magnet-science-projects page is right, shouldn’t we be able to make a compass ourselves? Well, the answer is yes – if only we could make a magnet. So we’ll …
