This 32-slide lesson on Magnetic Fields begins with a student-centered discussion on the applications of magnetism as well as a brief overview of what magnets are and how they're used. It then goes into Magnetic Poles, Permanent vs. Temporary Magnets, and Earth’s Magnetic Field. It concludes by examining Oersted’s Principal, the Right-Hand Rule, the connection between Magnetism and Electricity, Solenoids, Electromagnetism, Faraday’s and Lenz’s Law, and Conventional Current vs. Electron Flow. It is a thorough overview and introduction that will fit any high school classroom well.

Google and Distance Learning Ready

• This lesson includes both Office and Google formats for ALL resources. The presentation is in PowerPoint and Google Slides while all documents contain Word and Google Doc versions.
• Your resource is perfect for distance learning and integrates seamlessly with Google Classroom as I've included a link that will automatically create a copy of the resources and put them directly into your Google Drive with one click.
• Purchase --> Open --> Click --> Assign to your students

Having both options allows you to use either without worrying about formatting issues as all the work has already been done for you. It safeguards you in case your department or school decides to go Google 100% and allows you as well as your students to access everything no matter where you are or what kind of equipment is being used.

Included in the lesson package is:

• Google and Office versions of each resource
• The teacher version of the presentation
• The student version of the presentation
• Auto-graded Exit Ticket
• 4 Embedded Videos
• Student lesson handout

The student version of the presentation contains multiple blanks that need to be filled in throughout the lesson. These blanks are conveniently underlined and bolded on the teacher copy. I have found this to be the most effective means of keeping my students engaged and active without having them write everything out. This also leaves more time for discussion and activities.

This lesson along with the following can be found within my Electricity and Magnetism Unit.
