Magnets.

Experiment:
To find out which part of the magnet is the strongest.  Is it the north or south pole or the middle of the magnet?
Use a bar magnet and paper clips to find this out.

Your job is to write a hypothesis - That is a sensible guess.

  1. Hypothesis
    I think the north pole will be the strongest because compasses point north.
    I think the north pole will be the strongest because the domains in the steel all point that way.
    I think the middle will be the strongest because the north and south will suck the paper clips to the middle.
    I think the south is the strongest.
    I think both the poles will be strongest because they can repel and attract things.

    Ms Turner says - These are very thoughtful predictions.
