About this worksheet
Finish your magnets unit with this scaffolded grade 3 capstone. Students see that a magnet can move a paper clip without touching it — the pull reaches through the table — then organize their thinking and solve a real design problem.
The heart of the sheet is a kid-friendly claim-evidence-reasoning organizer: What I think, What I saw, and Why, with fill-in blanks so every student can succeed. The closing design challenge asks students to get a paper clip out of a cup of water without touching the water, applying the very idea they just proved. Friendly diagrams make the setup clear for young learners.
This is the reasoning capstone of a hands-on magnets unit and builds on the strength and sorting worksheets. Perfect for science centers, early finishers, sub plans, or homework. Everything is no-prep: print and teach. A clean answer key is included with sample responses, and the answer key skips the images to save your ink.
