Use this resource as an aid for the children to complete project work on the area of magnetism. This would be used when the children have gained a large amount of knowledge in the area of magnetism and they feel confident to partake in a group project. The children would work in small groups of 3-4 and they would present their findings and information to the whole class in the end. I would use video recording of the children presenting their information as a form of assessment.
