This afternoon in 3V we kicked off our new Science topic, investigating Forces and Magnets.
We learnt some new vocabulary and found out that magnets have both a north and a south pole. We experimented with the magnets and discovered that opposite poles attract each other, while like poles repel each other.
We had lots of fun identifying magnetic fields using iron filings and discovering that some metal objects can become magnetised through contact with a magnet.
This is always a really popular topic for our Year 3 children, and this year seems to be no exception!
