These STEM lessons and activities cover permanent and temporary magnets, electromagnets, ferromagnetic materials, magnetic fields, and alternating and direct current.

Henry was an innovative teacher whose interest in the relatively new field of electromagnetism, combined with his belief in the importance of demonstrating scientific phenomena to his students, led him to develop electromagnets that were far more powerful than any previously made.

Middle school resources for understanding the Magnetospheric Multiscale (MMS) mission, a Solar Terrestrial Probes mission comprising of four identically instrumented spacecraft that will study the Earth’s magnetosphere.

The tasks are organized according to clusters of Performance Expectations (PEs) within each disciplinary topic. Under each cluster of PEs, we present a set of less broad but more manageable three dimensional performance statements that we call Learning Performances (LPs), which collectively describe the performances that students need to demonstrate as they progress toward achieving a cluster of PEs.
