Science Incursion

After learning all about Forces this term, we were lucky enough to have a free incursion today! Not only did we get to explore what magnets are, but we also got the chance to create our own magnets and explore what items are magnetic. We even starting discussing high school language with electrons and magnetic fields…very interesting stuff!

Below are some of our scientists!
