Notes

• Primary author of the unit was David Hartney
• "The unit progresses through these phenomena [magnetism, electricity, and electromagnetism] in the same order that people first learned about them–magnets and compasses, electricity from batteries, then electromagnetism (electromagnets, motors, and generators). Opportunities are taken to integrate the science activities with other subjects such as language arts, mathematics, history, and geography."–p. 1
• For grade 6
