Force Exerted by
Magnets
 Lesson Objectives:
1. Identify objects attracted by magnets.
2. State the importance of magnets.
3. Participate actively in group activity.
Show a magnet to the
class. Ask questions
about it.
Telling a story about how

magnets originated.
 The first magnet was not invented,
but rather found from a naturally
occurring mineral called magnetite.
Traditionally, the ancient GREEKS were
the discoverers of magnetite. There is a
story about a shepherd named Magnes
whose shoe nails stuck to a rock
containing magnetite.
 He took a step and suddenly found that
the nails that held his shoe together and
the metal tip of his staff were suck fast to
the rock he was standing on. Intrigued,
he began digging and discovered the
first recorded lodstone. Lodstone where
known as “Magnetite”, probably named
after the shepherd Magnes.

 Key Concepts:

• Magnet can attract materials.

• Not all materials are attracted by
magnets.
• Materials made of metals are those
attracted by magnets. They may be
made of iron, nickel and cobalt.
 Nickel- a hard silver-white material,
can also be made into coin. E.g 5 cents
Canadian coin
Iron- is a heavy type metal and is used to
make steel in many products.
Cobalt- a hard, shiny, silver-white
metal that is often mixed with other
metals.
 Materials which are non metals
are not attracted by magnets. They
may be made of rubber, plastic or
wood, or even cloth.
 What can magnets
do to some materials?
Are magnets
important? Why?
Group Activity:
Group 1 and 2: Draw objects found at home that are
attracted by magnets.
Group 3 and 4: Draw objects found inside the
classroom that are attracted by
magnets.
