Identify magnetic materials
Grade 2 students identify which everyday materials are magnetic and which are not in this Physical Science worksheet on Magnets, building the observation and classification skills central to early science inquiry. Teachers can use it as a pre-lab activity before testing magnets hands-on, or as a follow-up to reinforce which material properties predict magnetic attraction. It fits into Physical Science units and encourages students to apply their findings to real objects in their environment.
Learning objectives
- Identify materials that are attracted to magnets and those that are not
- Classify objects as magnetic or non-magnetic based on their material composition
- Explain what property of a material determines whether it responds to a magnet
