When you are finding out about forces, magnets are often included because of the invisible force field around them which can affect other objects.
Remember, a force is usually seen as a push or a pull and it makes other objects move or stop moving or even change direction. Magnets can pull things towards them or push them away; they can also make them spin round.
In this worksheet you'll have a chance to try out your knowledge of magnets and then to use your powers of scientific deduction to find out what's going on.
