The NYS Learning Standards• MST Standard 1: Students will use mathematical analysis, scientific
inquiry, and engineering design, as appropriate, to pose questions, seek answers, and develop solutions.
Elementary, Scientific Inquiry: 2
• MST Standard 4: Students will understand and apply scientific concepts, principles, and theories pertaining to the physical setting and living environment and recognize the historical development of ideas in science.
Elementary, Physical Setting: 4, 5
• MST Standard 7: Students will apply the knowledge and thinking skills of mathematics, science, and technology to address real-life problems and make informed decisions.
Objective:
• Students will describe, define magnets
• Students will experiment with magnets (observe and investigate)
Opening• Bob the magnet has a problem.• There are paper clips in a cup filled with
water.• How can Bob get the paperclips out
without getting wet or touching the cup?• Does he really have to use his swim
gear?
Challenge

Math component and objectives• Each group of four will be given magnets
of different sizes. • Groups will determine the maximum
number of paper clips each magnet can hold.
• Groups will record data• Class will combine and average data• Class will graph data
Closing• Answer the following questions in your
journal.• How can you predict what will stick to a
magnet?• What happens when you have a bigger
magnet?• Why are magnets important to you?
