Year 3 Science Scince: Magnetic Games

May 25, 2021

On Monday, Year 3 had their final Science lesson on the topic of Forces and Magnets. To consolidate their knowledge, the children created their own fairground games, based on magnetism! They used key words such as force, magnetic field and attract to explain how their games would work. The children created their games in their table groups, games included: magnetic fishing, magnetic races and magnetic paper boats. Some of the children were shocked to find out that some of the magnets were strong enough to work from underneath a table! What a way to finish a topic this half term, well done Year 3!
