Grade 3 Science · Magnets
Explore Grade 3 Science with five 10-question practice tests on magnetic materials, poles, attraction, repulsion, compasses, and everyday uses of magnets.
These Grade 3 Science practice tests help students understand how magnets interact with materials and with one another. Students explore magnetic materials, poles, attraction, repulsion, magnetic fields, compasses, and electromagnets.
Check the material first, then identify the poles or force involved. Remember that opposite poles attract, like poles repel, and magnetic force can act across a small space without direct contact.

Correct answer: A
The correct answer is A magnet pulls a paper clip before touching it..
The paper clip moves before contact, showing force across a space.
Please select an answer first.
Correct answer: B
The correct answer is Like poles repel and opposite poles attract..
This rule describes the interaction between magnetic poles.
Magnets attract iron, steel, and some other magnetic materials, but not every metal or material.
Like poles repel, while opposite poles attract.
