 Revising Magnets with Quizzes

(KS1 Magnets Quizzes for pupils that are about to go in for the KS1 end of year exam)

The study of magnets, their types, the way they function and their uses is done in KS1 science and our quizzes, at gcequiz.com, meet up with the requirements of the KS1 Science Curriculum. These quizzes target the section of Key Stage 1 science that deals with the study of Magnets in general.

We need to first of all understand what magnets are before we can know of how they function and their uses.

Any material that creates a magnetic field is known as a metal and with magnets, there exist three types of magnets which are temporary magnets, permanent magnets and electromagnets.

When two magnets are brought together they can either get attracted or they repel (push) each other. Magnets attract some materials and all the materials that magnets can attract are known as magnetic materials and Iron is one of them.

Compasses are manufactured using Magnets 

Magnets are also used in generators and electric motors and electric accelerators 

The quizzes here will help children to better understand what magnets are. This will also help the children to better prepare for their end of year KS1 Science exams. This online platform provides quizzes that are totally free of charge so you can answer the quizzes whenever and wherever you wish to answer them.
