ScienceWiz(R) Online Discovery Magnetism Magnetism: This kit includes color coded magnets. With this color coding, children can discover for themselves how magnets attract and repel. The Magnetism kit includes a highly visual, full color, step-by-step, 40 page science book, multiple magnets, a compass and iron filings, as well as other materials. This Online Discovery version also includes a flip-book with embedded animations, videos, games, additional projects and interactive simulations.

There are 22 projects in Magnetism, INCLUDING:

  • Testing which objects stick to magnets and which do not
  • Attracting, repelling and floating with magnets
  • Discovering whether ALL metals stick to magnets
  • Detecting which metal objects contain iron
  • Making and exploring with a compass
  • Determining which windows are facing North and which are facing South
  • Using iron filings to visualize the lines of force
  • Figuring out that magnetic force works through materials
    including cardboards, water, wood and even the entire Earth.
  • Making a temporary magnet from a permanent magnet.
Finally, they make an electromagnet, learn how to turn it on and off, and how to flip its poles. With this knowledge, they are on their way to understanding how electric motors work.


The kit includes a handle box for easy storage and transport.

Norman, Penny: - Penny Norman, Ph.D. earned a doctoral degree in Biophysics from U.C. Berkeley. She became involved with the development of primary grade science materials through volunteer work, which she began as her own children started school. During this process she became deeply concerned about the limited exposure of elementary age students to the physical sciences.

Her concern has translated into a 20 year effort to test and revamp science materials for the primary grades. Her work with children developed into a product line initially under the auspices of grants from the National Science Foundation and the Franklin Foundation. Her published titles reflect Dr. Norman's extensive testing and involvement with children and teachers and her love and commitment to both.

Einstein, Ann: - "Ann Einstein, M.A.T. from George Washington University in Washington D.C., was a teacher in the Berkeley Unified School District. She has been involved with the education of children for most of her adult career as a director of early childhood education programs, as a teacher in gifted and talented programs and most recently as an elementary education teacher. She has been an editor of the ScienceWiz(TM) Books since 1994 when she edited the ElectroWiz(TM) Electricity book. Ann brings a clarity of mind and the capacity to see things through a child's eyes to the editing process.

To quote an Einstein of an earlier generation:

"We never cease to stand like curious children before the great Mystery into which we were born." - Albert Einstein
