Background Information

• Magnets have invisible magnetic field

which attracts objects made of iron
and nickel.
• One end of a bar magnet is the north
pole and the opposite is the south
pole.
• Magnets are attracted to three types
of metals. These metals are made of
nickel, iron and cobalt.

2. Generalization
- Be careful.
- What are examples of materials that - Practice safety measures and do
are attracted to magnets? Why do not play with sharp objects.
they attract to magnets?

Bar Magnet - Paper clip, thumbtacks, metal

spoon, etc.
E. Evaluation - Because they are made of metals
Direction: Draw a horseshoe magnet ___ like iron, cobalt and nickel
