Magnet Pages

First experiment

Materials:
Construction paper.
Two circle donut magnets.


1. Hold the paper straight in one hand.
2.  Slide one of the magnets on top of the paper.
3.  Slide the next magnet on the bottom of the same paper, below the first magnet.
4.  Do the two magnets stick together or repel each other?
5.  Slide the bottom magnet around.  Does the top follow?
6.  Now take the top magnet and flip it so that it is upside down.
7.  Do the two magnets stick together or repel each other?
8.  Slide the bottom magnet around.  Does the top follow?


What did we learn from this?
1. That Magnets can attract or repel each other through paper.
