Teaching magnetism starting as early as Kindergarten is quite normal these days. Magnets can be used as an integral part to teach students about attraction, repulsion, power generation, magnetic waves, electro magnets, levitation, and many other core physics concepts. The science of magnetism is often a difficult concept to grasp, without a hands-on example. With just a few magnets, the concepts of magnetism come to life, creating an indelible impression on the student.
Have you ever wondered how a compass works, or want to create one? Or how the earth keeps on spinning on the same axis? Yes, there is no doubt that magnets have amazing qualities. Objects in space and our entire solar system are held together with magnetism. The sun, for instance, is very magnetic, because there are areas on the sun where there are a lot of extra electrons or protons. The Earth is also highly magnetic, although Mars and Venus are much less so. The Earth's magnetism pulls negatively-charged things like electrons toward the North Pole and positively-charged things like protons, toward the South Pole. Liquid iron inside the Earth creates (and sometimes changes) the Earth's magnetism.
Until about two-hundred years ago, people made magnets by rubbing iron on lodestones. The rubbing lined up the atoms of the iron so that all the atoms would pull in the same direction. Today strong electric currents are used to create the magnetism in most magnets. Amazing Magnets sells the world’s strongest magnetic material, known as NdFeB. NdFeB is a Rare Earth metal composition, consisting primarily of Neodymium, Iron and Boron. The magnets are made using a very complex process, which yields a magnetic material superior to all other materials known to man.
Learning about magnetism is fun, safe and entertaining; however, caution should be exercised. It is advised to supervise activities when children are handling the magnets, and never allow magnets to be ingested.
Do you need to visualize magnetic fields? Amazing Magnets sells a Ferrous liquid (Ferrofluid) that allows one to visualize the magnetic field of any magnet held close to it. Watch as spikes of pulsing liquid rise up, grow longer, and multiply as the magnet gets closer to the liquid. Amazing Magnets also sells Magnetic field paper (Magfilm) which changes color, allowing one to visualize polarity and field patterns. These visualization tools allow the magnetic field patterns to be viewed in both 2D and 3D. Ferrofluid experimentation kits are available which contain everything needed for the inquisitive mind.
