Y5 Weeks: Magnetism
21st Jan 2026
We have been learning about the polar caps. Our Earth is like a giant magnet which emits invisible magnetic force fields. Today we had a go at predicting if certain materials possessed magnetic properties. There were some surprising results. We quickly learned that not all metals are magnetic. To be magnetic, metals had to contain iron, steel, nickel or cobalt.
