Grade 1 learners discover that Earth itself is a giant magnet with a North and South Pole. Nine fill-in sentences cover compass needles, iron, and why a compass points north. A matching set pairs four Earth magnet ideas, like compass needle and North Pole, with short labels. This worksheet links magnet science to maps, hikes, and polar places, making first grade geography and physics connect.
