Designing Magnetic Games

Check out P3d’s Blog. Over the last number of weeks P3d have been investigating forces on magnetic and non-magnetic items. We worked together in small groups at a variety of Stations to learn about magnets.

From there we progressed to designing magnetic games. We had to decide on what type of game we wanted to create and then decide on the materials that would be needed. We wrote out instructions so that other groups would know how to play our games.

We are really pleased with our finished games!

P3b – Science ā€“ Forces & Magnets

For the last 6 weeks, in the STEM room, P3b have been exploring forces exerted by magnets.Ā  They have been investigating forces on magnetic and non-magnetic materials.

This week, they have been applying their knowledge of magnetic materials and in groups, they contributed to the design of a game.

First, they had to logically organise their information about magnets and magnetic materials.Ā  Then they had to decide what materials they needed to create and design their own game.

Lastly, they wrote out instructions for their games so that they could test them all out.

They had fantastic fun working with magnets and forces and loved making their own games.
