The document outlines a microteaching lesson plan by Ritu Ghosh for a science class on the topic of magnets, targeting fifth-grade students. The plan includes clear objectives, activities demonstrating the properties and types of magnets, and interactions to engage students in observing and understanding magnetism. It also suggests using illustrations and hands-on activities to clarify concepts and stimulate discussions about the magnetic properties discussed.

1. Good morning
students.
2. Today we are
going to learn
about magnets.
3. Magnets are
materials which
attracts iron
objects towards
itself
4. Pupil teacher
illustrates an
activity of
attraction of
magnets by iron
nail.
Good morning Mam

5. This time pupil teacher change the
object from iron nail to a steel and
shows the attraction and in the same
way brings a paper close to the
magnet and shows no attraction
between paper and magnet.
6. So materials such as iron, copper,
steel nickel which are attracted
towards a magnet are known as
magnetic materials and materials
such as paper, cloth, plastic which
are not attracted by the magnet are
called non-magnetic materials

8. STEPS TEACHER’S ACTIVITY STUDENT’S ACTIVITY COMPONENT’S USED
7. There are two types of
magnet.
(i) Natural magnets
(ii) Artificial magnets
8. Natural magnets are those
magnets which are obtained
naturally from nature.
9.Artificial magnets are those
magnets which are man-
made magnets.
10.Artificial magnets are
prepared in different shapes.
(i) Bar magnet
(ii) Horse shoe magnet
(iii) Ball-ended magnet

11. Let us know about
properties of magnets.
(i) Magnets exert influence
through their various
materials.
The effect of magnet works
through air, water and even
solid things.
Pupil-teacher explains this
property by demonstrating.
Pupil teacher takes an empty
glass and put some pins into
it. Now she brings a magnet
near it. The pins are moving
and ask students what they
observe?

Pupil teacher takes another
glass and put a pin into it and
fill the glass with water. Now
bring a magnet near it and
shows in water also magnet
exert its influence.
Then pupil teacher takes a
cardboard and put a pin in it
and shows the movement by
influence of magnet in solid.
(ii) Magnets exert more magnetic
force at the ends compared to
the middle.
If we roll a bar magnet
containing plate of iron fillings
sticks are on the ends. The ends
of magnet show more magnetic
field force and are called the
poles of magnet.

(iii) Magnets comes to rest in north and
south direction.
Pupil teacher suspends a magnet with a
thread attached to it at its centre. When it
comes to rest it is pointed towards two
direction (ie) north and south direction.
From this teaching aid a student
understands about north pole and south
pole.
(iv) Like poles repel, unlike poles attract.
Pupil teacher distributes pairs of magnet to
set of four students and ask them to bring
the two piece of magnet closer.
In one case the two magnets will attract
with each other with lot of force, and in
other case it is difficult to bring the two
magnets closer.

USED
So what happens here is the north pole
of one magnet attract the south pole of
oter magnet. And in the next case the
north pole of one magnet strongly repels
the north pole of the other magnet.
(v) Magnetic poles always exist in pairs.
If a magnet is broken then eaxh piece will
behave as a complete Magnet.
12. (Q.1) Based on which property of
magnet a compass needle is designed?
13. (Q.2) What are the properties of
magnets?

so today we learnt about magnet.
A magnet is a substance which
attracts iron objects towards itself
and we also learnt about its types
and properties of magnets.
