Magnetic Poles
Science · Forces & Motion · conceptual
Describe magnets as having two poles (north and south) and predict whether two magnets will attract or repel based on which poles face each other
What mastery looks like
- Identify and label the north and south poles of a magnet
- State the rule: like poles repel, opposite poles attract
- Predict the outcome of bringing two magnets together based on their pole orientation
Check your understanding
Can Magnetic Poles hold two magnets together and explain why they sometimes snap together and sometimes push apart, based on which ends are facing?
