Science: comparative test

Friday 28 May 2021

In our science lessons the past couple of weeks, we’ve been investigating which is the strongest magnet in our big box of magnets!

We talked about and decided how we could investigate this question. Some of us decided to see how many paperclips a magnet could pick up. Others decided to see how many pieces of paper they could put between a magnet and a paperclip.

We thought about which variable would change (the magnets) and which would need to be the same (the type and size of paperclip and paper). We then Co ducted the experiments and recorded our results.

A conclusion we made was that it wasn’t the largest magnet that was the strongest.
