Magnets

Sorry it's been a while since I have posted. Since we got back from break, things have been full swing in kindergarten! Our first week back, we learned about magnets. We learned that magnets have a north pole and a south pole. The north pole of a magnet attracts (or comes together) with a south pole of a magnet. If you try to put poles together that are the same, they repel (or push away). We had a lot of fun playing with magnets in class. We even learned how to make a magnet by rubbing something metal on a magnet.

I love all these "attractive" pictures. Heehee! And, I also liked the video on here. This boy sure is smart! Both magnets and the Earth have both a north and south pole - are there any similarities?
