Maglev Trains
Maglev #1
A maglev train is a train that levitates on magnet like south to south that should levitate. Our idea was we put magnets that looked like strips all around ends. This did not work because the magnets were on top of each other which was a problem.
We put too many magnets on the bottom so we changed the plan and put them on the sids. This was a good solution and it worked. Then we wanted to make it levitate higher so we put donut magnet on top and it repelled so high after we did that.
My experience working with my group was good but we had some ups and downs. It was a little challenging because sometimes we did not agree on stuff. We all wanted to do something different when it was a final decision to pick the main idea for our maglev train. We found a solution by joining our ideas together and that worked well for my group.
Times Square
When it is dark in Times Square the lights are so pretty. I wish I still lived in New York City, but I love Scarsdale. It is the best. One time in Times Square, my dad pointed out that there was a man painting pictures. So we stopped and watched the pictures were pretty. And then people came over to watch and more people came to watch until it was crowded! The man looked happy because the people were delighted with his drawings so they were buying them. So he made this picture that I loved!!! It was the night sky, but we did not buy the picture. The people and the art are some reasons I love Times Square.
Another reason Times Square is special is because I loved all the site’s there. They are so pretty. When I go there I always see the M&M factory. And all the billboards. People from all over the world come to see Times Square.
There are not that many places that are like Times Square. And I love when me and my dad go walking back from the movies. Because we have to walk through Times Square tons of people with shopping bags and all the excitement in Times Square. I love Times Square.
