About this resource
Description
This magnetic objects worksheet helps young scientists learn which everyday things a magnet will pull. A magnet pulls things made of iron or steel, such as nails, pins and paper clips, but it does not pull wood, paper, cloth, wax or food. Children look closely at each object, think about what it is made of, and decide whether a magnet would pull it toward itself.
About This Worksheet
In Part A, students look at six bright pictures, a paper clip, a nail, a crayon, an apple, a safety pin and a feather, and circle the things a magnet will pull. In Part B, they read four pairs of short words, such as tack and sock or rug and can, and circle the one a magnet will pull. The answer key on the second page shows every correct choice. This 1st grade magnets worksheet works well after a hands-on magnet exploration, in a science center, or as a quick check of understanding.
What’s Included
- Six picture items to circle
- Four word pairs to read and choose from
- A complete answer key
Why It Helps Kids
First, it connects a hands-on science idea to a simple paper task, so children can show what they noticed while playing with magnets. Second, sorting objects by what they are made of builds early reasoning about materials. Third, the word pairs give beginning readers real reading practice with short, decodable words inside a science lesson.
Ideas for Teachers and Parents
Before the worksheet, set out a magnet and a tray of objects and let children predict and test each one. After finishing, have them hunt around the room for more things a magnet will pull, then sort them into two piles. Use this magnetic objects worksheet as an exit ticket or a take-home review.
