Let's Build Electromagnets Kits
Young engineers conduct experiments to determine the effects of combining magnetic fields and electrical charges!
Students develop critical-thinking skills as they see firsthand how an electric current creates a magnetic field, and how it disappears when the electricity is turned off. As students build their electromagnets, they compare core materials and thickness. They also determine the number of wraps a coil needs for an effective magnet during four interactive projects. Teacher’s manual includes lesson plans, background information, and reproducible student worksheets. Kit accommodates 4 students. Set of 6 accommodates 24 students. Recommended for Upper Elementary and up.
