Description

This fully editable Lab Station Activity on Magnetic Fields is meant to get your students out of their seats and engaged in the content.

Each station not only offers a unique opportunity to test your students' knowledge (offer an opinion, answer questions based on a video or reading, draw, etc.), but also provides a fantastic learning opportunity where your kids are learning through assessment.


✅ Includes Word and PDF version for each file

✅ 7 Unique Lab Stations: Includes hands-on activities, video analysis, opinion writing, research, and more.

✅ Covers Key Concepts: Earth's magnetic field to solenoids, electromagnetic induction, and the Right-Hand Rule.

✅ Bonus Puzzles Included: Word search and word scramble with answer keys to keep students busy and learning.

✅ Low Prep & Fully Editable: Just print and go—everything you need is ready, including a student passport and answer keys.

No prep, no formatting, no issues. Simply download, print (or upload to your class site) and you're all set.


This resource covers the following topics:

  • Magnet Fields
  • Law of Magnetic Poles
  • Permanent vs. Temporary Magnets
  • Earth’s Magnetic Field
  • Oersted’s Principal
  • The Right-Hand Rule
  • Magnetism and Electricity
  • Solenoids
  • Electromagnetism and Electromagnetic Induction•Faraday’s and Lenz’s Laws
  • Conventional Current and Electron Flow

How do the Lab Stations work? Each station is specially designed to be a unique complement to the material while at the same time, provide a valuable learning experience. Below is an overview of how each station works. In your activity, each will be tailored to the specific content.

Station 1: Get Hands-On – using their creative skills, students are required to draw or build.

Station 2: Research – using a classroom computer or their own device, students must research a specific question/issue surrounding the topic.

Station 3: Explain yourself – students write down an opinion to a question in paragraph form.

Station 4: Rest Station - students can use this time to catch up on work they didn't have time to complete at a previous station or prepare themselves for an upcoming one.

Station 5 - Applicability reading – students read a short passage from an article, website, etc. which directly connects the classroom content to a real-life application.

Station 6: Test your knowledge – students answer 5 multiple choice questions than provide a written explanation for how/why they came to their conclusions.

Station 7: Learn from the expert – using a classroom computer or their own device, students must watch a short video clip and answer the associated questions. They may stop, rewind and restart as often as they like during the time frame.

Station 8 - Rest Station.

Station 9: Become the question master – Students must create 2 multiple-choice questions, 2 true/false questions and 1 short answer question. Students must also supply the answers.
