This is an engaging and enjoyable memory game on magnets and electromagnets. Pupils work in teams of three or four. Each team lays out their 42 cards face down in a square and take it in turn to turn over two cards. If the cards are a question and its correct answer, the pupil keeps the pair. If they are not a match they are turned face down and the next pupil gets a turn. This process continues until all cards are matched and the winner is the pupil with the most pairs.
If a team member thinks that the selectors pair is not a correct match, they can challenge.
Pupils are encouraged to check their books for the correct answer but the teacher also has a quick-check answer sheet. If the challenge is correct, the challenger keeps the pair.
**Included in this Pack. **
- 42 question and answer cards
- Teacher’s answer sheet.
- Instruction sheet
Preparation
- Use double-sided printing to copy 1 set per group of 4 pupils.
- Sheets could be laminated to enable year-on-year use.
- Cut sheets into cards.
Prior Knowledge Required
- Magnetic materials can be made into magnets.
- Iron, cobalt and nickel and their alloys are magnetic materials.
- Unlike poles attract and like pole repel.
- There is an invisible magnetic field around a magnet made up of field lines.
- Draw the field lines around a bar magnet.
- The closer together the field lines the stronger the magnetic field.
- Draw the field lines around two bar magnets with like and unlike poles facing.
- There are more field lines around the poles where the magnetic field is strongest.
- The magnetic field strength gets less as distance from the magnet increases.
- Field lines point away from the south pole and towards the north pole of a magnet.
- When a magnetic material is made into a magnet, the randomly facing domains all line up to point in the same direction.
- The Earth acts as though there as a south-type pole at magnetic north and a north-type pole at magnetic south.
- Explain how an electric bell, a relay and a circuit breaker work.
