For our maglev train we used six strip magnets. We three one the train and three on the track.  We new that the more the magnets the better the magnetic field and that would help more marbles stay on the train. So we put three magnets on the train and track instead of two.

What failed was a lot of magnet stacked on top of each other because it made a gap witch attracted the magnets on the train. What we learned was don’t stack magnets on top of each other and be careful where you put them. What we did about this failure was we took four magnets of.

What we learned about the engineering design process was you can almost never succeed on your first try. It is very frustrating. I also learned think before you do something. Working with partners are easier than working alone. Working with them is also fun. It is good to connect your idea and there’s. It’s being a good partner when you encourage them.
