It was a thrilling Tuesday in room 204! We learned so much about the magnetic force using our magnet box, compass, iron filings and test objects. We learned how magnets interact and also how the Earth has two poles very much like a magnet’s poles. Also, we discovered that a compass needle is a magnet. One end points to the Earth’s magnetic north pole. It was a great day of learning!
