Today, our students explored magnetism through a fun hands-on Science activity. We provided the materials and let them take the lead in creating their own temporary magnets, then tested them using paper clips.

First, they tried the stroking method by rubbing a magnet on an iron nail in one direction several times. They were excited to see the nail attract paper clips after repeated strokes.

The most exciting part came when students created their own electromagnet using the electrical method. We gave them the materials—an iron nail, copper wire, and a battery—and let them figure out how to build the electromagnet on their own. They wrapped the copper wire around the nail, connected it to the battery, and proudly tested whether their creation could pick up paper clips. The room was full of cheers and amazed reactions as many of the nails successfully attracted paper clips, proving that electricity can create magnetism!

This student-led activity helped our learners strengthen their problem-solving skills, teamwork, and confidence while discovering that Science is not just something we read about—it’s something we can explore and create with our own hands. Great job to our young scientists! 🧲🔋
