Magnetic Games

My students had to design and make a magnetic games as part of our Science unit of investigation on magnetic forces. They were to bring in materials from home, draw a design and make the game at school. Here are some of their creations:

Board games: magnets were used as counters on a tray

 

Fishing Game: paper clips tied to the end of string were used to pick up magnetic fish in the tank

Puppet Theatre: magnetic people stood on the metal base of the puppet theatre

Dress-Up Dolls: clothing and accessories were magnetised using magnetic tape

 

                       

Mazes: two magnetic balls placed on either side of the cardboard maze were rolled around to find the way out of the maze
