______
what makes them push each other away or pull toward each other.
Prior Student Knowledge:
1. Given examples of randomly selected objects, students will label them as either magnetic or
nonmagnetic.
2. Survey: Agree or Disagree
a. All metals have magnetic properties (are attracted to magnets).
b. Magnets are always attracted to other magnets.
c. All magnets are made from naturally occurring materials, therefore we cannot manufacture
magnets from other materials.
RI.3.1 - Ask and answer questions to demonstrate understanding of a text, referring explicitly to the text
as the basis for the answers. (3-PS2-1), (3-PS2-3)
RI.3.3 - Describe the relationship between a series of historical events, scientific ideas or concepts, or
steps in technical procedures in a text, using language that pertains to time, sequence, and
cause/effect. (3-PS2-3)
RI.3.8 - Describe the logical connection between particular sentences and paragraphs in a text (e.g.,
comparison, cause/effect, first/second/third in a sequence). (3-PS2-3)
SL.3.3 - Ask and answer questions about information from a speaker, offering appropriate elaboration
and detail. (3-PS2-3)
W.3.7 - Conduct short research projects that build knowledge about a topic. (3-PS2-1), (3-PS2-2)
W.3.8 - Recall information from experiences or gather information from print and digital sources; take
brief notes on sources and sort evidence into provided categories. (3-PS2-1), (3-PS2-2)
Mathematics
3.MD.A.2 - Measure and estimate liquid volumes and masses of objects using standard units of grams (g),
kilograms (kg), and liters (l). Add, subtract, multiply, or divide to solve one-step word problems involving
masses or volumes that are given in the same units, e.g., by using drawings (such as a beaker with a
measurement scale) to represent the problem. (3-PS2-1)
MP.2 - Reason abstractly and quantitatively. (3-PS2-1)
MP.5 - Use appropriate tools strategically. (3-PS2-1)
Science & Engineering Practices:
Disciplinary Core Ideas:
Crosscutting Concepts:

Electric, and magnetic forces
based on patterns such as cause and
between a pair of objects do not
effect relationships. (3-PS2-3)

ENGAGE:
EXPLORE:
Probing or Clarifying Questions:
What factors affect the attraction between two magnets?
What factors affect the repulsion between two magnets?
EXPLAIN:
Concepts Explained and Vocabulary Defined:
EXPLORE:
Give magnetic marbles to students, so
they can experience the forces of
magnetism on their own.
Walk around the classroom, giving
suggestions on experiments to try, or
pointing out how the magnets are
attracted to each other.
After a few minutes of exploration,
have students get into small groups of
three or four. Have students show each
other the tricks they found to do with
their magnets.
Encourage them to talk about why they
think that happened. Come back as a
class and have one or two students
from each group share what they
learned about magnets.
EXPLAIN:
ELABORATE:
ELABORATE:
Students make predictions about what they
think will happen.
Provide student with a varied set of different objects
Each student will write down his or her
prediction (or hypothesis) at the top of a
piece of notebook paper.
They will draw what actually happened and
their explanation of why their prediction
was correct or incorrect.
