Compare magnetic strength, poles, and field patterns with this hands-on Magnet Strength Exploration Kit. The set combines classic alnico horseshoe and bar magnets with steel shapes and iron filings so students can observe attraction, compare magnet shapes, and visualize magnetic force. The included 1 inch horseshoe magnet, 2 inch horseshoe magnet, and 2 inch bar magnet with pole markings support demonstrations of north and south poles, attraction and repulsion, and how magnet shape can affect magnetic strength. Steel shapes and iron filings add inquiry-based opportunities for testing what magnets attract and seeing field lines in action. This compact kit is useful for science centers, demonstrations, STEM stations, and small-group magnetism lessons.
Key Features
- Compare magnet shapes: Includes horseshoe and bar magnets for exploring differences in magnetic strength.
- Visualize magnetic fields: Iron filings help show invisible field lines during guided demonstrations.
- Test attraction: Steel shapes support investigations into what magnets attract and how force behaves.
- Marked polarity: The 2 in bar magnet includes pole markings for north and south identification.
- Compact science kit: Includes 1 in horseshoe, 2 in horseshoe, 2 in bar magnet, steel shapes, and iron filings.
- STEM-ready activity set: Useful for classrooms, science centers, homeschool lessons, and small-group investigations.
