the important points
about magnets.
(continued)
Organize important facts about magnets by completing the
outline. Accept all reasonable responses.
Magnets
A. Magnetic force
1. Magnets apply attractive or repulsive force.
2. Interaction of two magnets depends on orientation.
3. Force between two magnets increases as they move
closer together.
B. Magnetic field
1. a force exerted on other magnets and objects made of
magnetic material
2. strongest close to the magnet
3. represented by lines with arrows to show direction
C. Magnetic poles

1. All magnets have a north and south pole.
2. Magnetic field is strongest at the poles.
3. Magnetic field lines go from north pole to south
pole.
4. Interaction of two magnets
a. Like magnetic poles repel each other.
b. Unlike magnetic poles attract each other.
D. Compass
1. needle is a small bar magnet
2. turns to line up with Earth’s magnetic field
3. points north toward Earth’s south magnetic pole
E. Earth as a magnet
1. South magnetic pole is near geographic north pole.
2. North magnetic pole is near geographic south pole.
3. Cause is unknown—perhaps related to inner core of
iron and nickel.

Outline the steps a recycling company might use to separate
metallic, nonmetallic, and other recyclable materials. (Hint: Some of the materials are
magnetic.)
Accept all reasonable responses. Use a large magnet to remove all the magnetic
materials, which are some of the metals. These can be separated further. Hand-sort or
machine-sort the remaining materials, which include recyclable aluminum.
