Bell Work:
Explain WHY the Earth has a magnetic field?!?!?! (hint: what is the Earth's core made of?)
Lesson:
Today Mrs. Allred showed the Phet simulation (Compass and Magnet) on the projector and help students to discover that the Earth's Magnetic Poles are OPPOSITE or the Earth's Geographic Poles.
Students finished Yellow packet paper #1 by drawing the Earth, its magnetic poles and its magnetic field. See the attached picture below for help.
