6.5 understand that magnetism is induced in some materials when they are placed in a magnetic field

Some materials can become magnetically induced when placed near a magnet.
For example if steel is placed near a magnet then it can become a magnet.

The closer to the magnet the material is placed, the more the magnetism is induced.

The poles are created opposite so...
If you place a north pole of a bar magnet against a bar of steel then the end facing the north pole would become a south pole.
