Magnets

     We sure have had a lot of fun learning about magnets the last few weeks!  Here is a list of things we have learned.

Do not put magnets up close to stuff that uses electricity.

Magnets are useful.

There is a cow magnet.

Magnets can pick up iron and cobalt.

The earth is a magnet.

Magnets don't stick to copper.

Magnets repel when north and north are together.

I learned that one magnet can move a paperclip through 76 paper plates.

Magnets can attract other magnets.

Some magnets are very strong and some are weak.

Some are used for big things like cars.

They have a north pole and a south pole.

The same poles attract but different poles don't attract.

Magnets stick to batteries.

Magnets push apart when they repel.
