Summary
Students will investigate and understand that magnets have an effect on some materials, make some things move without touching them, and have useful applications. Students will work in collaborative teams to create a racecar out of found objects and use magnets to race their cars without physically touching them. Students will use technology to support their learning and report on their original creations.
