Immersive Experiences have been developing memorable workshops for years. Our Hands on Science workshops are available both virtually and in-person for both schools and private party bookings.
The Magnets Workshop
This session is a fast paced introduction to magnets and magnetic force.
Starting with introduction or recap to the vocabulary to poles, attract, repel with some fun games and demonstrations.
Then the pupils will use the magnets for different challenges thinking about magnetic force and its power.
After lots of hands on time, we look at magnetic fields with iron filing demonstrations before a 3D magnetic field demonstration.
It’s packed full of theory and fun!
An introduction to magnetism, with a demonstration of magnetic fields using the magnetic field demonstrator.
By the end of the workshop, students will:
- Gain an understanding of the basics of magnetism.
- Understand how magnetic fields work using the 3D magnetic field demonstrator.
- Be able to name common uses for magnets in day-to-day life.
The workshop can be adapted for all ages. Please contact us for more information.
