Here are the answers to fill in the blanks and complete the worksheet tasks.

1.
Word Bank Completion:
* One is called the
north pole and the other is the
south pole.
* When two of the same poles are near one another, they
repel.
* When two different poles are near one another, they
attract.
* This means like poles
push away from one another. This means opposite poles
pull towards one another.
2.
Drawing Arrows (Magnetic Forces):
*
Top Left (S facing N): Draw arrows pointing
towards each other ($\rightarrow \leftarrow$). These are opposite poles, so they attract.
*
Top Right (N facing S): Draw arrows pointing
towards each other ($\rightarrow \leftarrow$). These are opposite poles, so they attract.
*
Bottom Left (N facing S): Draw arrows pointing
towards each other ($\rightarrow \leftarrow$). These are opposite poles, so they attract.
*
Bottom Right (S facing S): Draw arrows pointing
away from each other ($\leftarrow \rightarrow$). These are like poles, so they repel.
Middle Page: Experiments
1.
Prediction (Red end + Red end): The magnets will
repel (push away from each other) because they are the same pole.
2.
Prediction (Blue end + Blue end): The magnets will
repel (push away from each other) because they are the same pole.
3.
Prediction (Red end + Blue end): The magnets will
attract (pull together) because they are opposite poles.
4.
Helpful words box:
* north / south
* push / pull
* attract / repel

Answer these questions:
*
1. What does attract mean and what force can you see?
Attract means to pull together. You can see the magnets slide toward each other and stick.
*
2. What does repel mean and what force can you see?
Repel means to push away. You can see the magnets move away from each other or feel them pushing against your hand if you try to hold them together.
Final Answer:
Left Page:
* Blanks: north, south, repel, attract, push, pull.
* Arrows: Top-Left (Attract), Top-Right (Attract), Bottom-Left (Attract), Bottom-Right (Repel).
Middle Page:
* Predictions: Repel, Repel, Attract.
* Box Words: north/south, push/pull, attract/repel.
Right Page:
* Predictions: Repel, Repel.
* Q1: Attract means pulling together; magnets stick.
* Q2: Repel means pushing away; magnets move apart.
