What is Magnetism?
Magnetism is a force that attracts or repels certain materials. It is caused by the motion of electric charges.
Slide 4 - Slide
Introduce the concept of magnetism and explain its basic definition and cause.

Slide 5 - Slide
Discuss the two main types of magnets and their characteristics.
Magnetic Materials
Not all materials are magnetic. Some common magnetic materials include steel, iron, nickel, and cobalt.
Slide 6 - Slide
Explain that not all materials are magnetic and provide examples of common magnetic materials.
Testing Magnetic Objects
To test if an object is magnetic, you can use a magnet and observe if the object is attracted to it.
Slide 7 - Slide
Describe the process of testing magnetic objects using a magnet and encourage students to actively participate in the activity.
Classifying Objects
Objects can be classified into two categories: magnetic objects (attracted to magnets) and non-magnetic objects (not attracted to magnets). Discuss with your team and make an educated guess about what items will be magnetic and which items will be non-magnetic. Write down what you all hypothesize.

Slide 14 - Slide
Summarize the key points covered in the lesson and encourage students to continue exploring magnetism.
Write down 3 things you learned in this lesson that can help your design team with The Cooler Project.
Slide 15 - Open question
Have students enter three things they learned in this lesson. With this they can indicate their own learning efficiency of this lesson.
Write down 2 ideas your design team has brainstormed for The Cooler Project using today's mass lab data.
Slide 16 - Open question
Here, students enter two things they would like to know more about. This not only increases involvement, but also gives them more ownership.
