Objective:
What: SWBAT apply the properties that make objects magnetic or not.
How: Students will correctly complete a comic strip on magnetism that demonstrates 2 different ways to turn something into a magnet and one situation where an object cannot turn into a magnet.  
Why: To be academic achievers, we need to decimate the CST and the Physics final!

5. Magnetism comic strip
Your comic strip must explain the following four things:
      a. What makes things magnetic.
      b. How to create a magnet with another magnet, and why it turns into a magnet.
      c. How to use electricity to make something a magnet, and why this makes it turn into a magnet.
      d. An object that cannot become magnetic.  

Post your completed comic strip as a comment on today's blog post.
(There's a video explaining how to do this if you forgot how at the bottom of today's blog post!)
