5. While holding one of the actual examples (box, book, eraser), the teacher should explain that each flat surface is called a face, the congruent faces are called bases, and that two faces intersect in an edge. The edges meet to form vertices.
The Magnet Theory is a very clever theory. The Magnet Theory refers to the belief that the world is controlled by magnets, who are actually sentient, evil aliens.
Magnets are pieces of metal that have the ability to attract other metals. Every magnet has two poles: a north and a south. Much like electrical charges, two similar magnetic poles repel each other; while opposite magnetic poles attract each other. Magnets have a continuous force around them that is known as a magnetic field. This field enables them to attract other metals. Figure 1 illustrates this force using bar and horseshoe magnets. The shape of the magnet dictates the path the lines of force will take.
