A maglev train is a train that runs on magnets. It levitates or floats above the track. It can go really fast. The magnets have to repel; they can’t attract.  Our idea was to put strip magnets on the track. On the train we put disc magnets on the bottom.

What worked was that we got the train to levitate by making the magnets repel.  What failed was that we put the disc magnets on the train and it did not make the train levitate. I think it did not levitate, because we did not put like poles together.

The challenging part was that we had to make the train levitate. What worked out well was that eventually, we got the train to levitate. I think that it is easier to work in a group than by your self, because you have others peoples ideas. I liked working in a group, because it’s more fun. The challenging part was that was that we had all different ideas and we all needed to share them.
