Forces & Magnets is part of the Let's Investigate series, tailored for Key Stage 2 (ages 7–11) science education. It explores foundational physics topics such as:
How certain forces require direct contact while magnetic forces act at a distance
Magnetic attraction vs. repulsion, and the role of magnetic poles
Sorting everyday materials based on magnetic properties
Gravity and its effects
Resistance, friction, and how levers, pulleys, and gears amplify force
Encouraging simple experiments and scientific observation
