Making Our Own Magnets
Lesson 14 - 30/01/2007
We made our own magnets today out of paper clips. Firstly we had to straighten out the paper clip and blue tac it down onto our desk. Then we had to move a magnet through the air close to the paper clip taking care always to move the magnet in the same direction. We had to remember not to turn the magnets round either. Once we did this, the paper clip became a magnet too and we were able to go round the class like yesterday checking to see if it would attract pins and things.
