Our Trip To NYC!

I had a lot of fun looking at the Statue of Liberty. My class and I went on the Staten island ferry. We saw the Statue of Libertyđź—˝, Staten island and Ellis island. We went to South Street seaport. I had a lot of fun looking at everything. This is gonna help me a lot with my research project. New York City is really different from the last time I saw it. We saw really big buildings. I learned a lot more new information. thank you Mr. Casal for teaching me a lot more things and pointing out everything and giving me good facts. I had so much fun and learned so much!

Next step In Research-NY Project

In my research project on NY Harbor landmarks my question is what is the story behind the Statue of Liberty. I really like researching on this landmark because I love reading and learning things I do not know that much about the about the Statue of Liberty. New York is a really big place and it would be really hard to research on the whole state that is why I really like researching on the Statue of Liberty.My whole group has something different to research on. I go to NY a lot but the thing is I do not know that much about it. This NY project is really interesting because It has a lot of information. So far I research a lot and I write a lot down. Because my teacher told me that if you keep it in your head you are probally going to forget most of the research that you have done. I use a lot of websites like Wikipedia. I always use different. Over all I love researching and maybe I will inspire some other people to do it!

NY Project-The Beginning

So far I really like researching on NY Harbor. My question is what is the story behind NY Harbor. So far this project is challenging but I learned a lot of new things for example NY Harbor is a river located around Manhattan. I also learned that you can not just find an answer right away. I only found out two things about my question so far. Even though it is so frustrating  sometimes for example like when I read 3 big paragraphs on Wikipedia and did not find out any information. I really like how everyone has a different place in New York City. I also am so excited to see everything come together when the project is done. I do research a lot and work hard and so does my group. We have so many good websites that we can count on. This project is really fun. I love NY but I have to admit that I don’t know that much about it. Now I know so much more about it. And I can not wait to learn more. At first I thought NY Harbor was a town but I realized it was a river. I hope this inspires you to learn about New York City! Right now in the process we are wrapping our research together.

Italy – Molly

Welcome to my Cultural Universals project. I did  a wonderful and beautiful country named Italy. I hope you enjoy me Adobe Spark video. And I worked really hard on it with my partner that gave me great help. The most challenging part about this project was finding a perfect picture the easiest thing for me was finding the perfect and happy music. I spent 5 weeks on this Cultural Universal project. I hope you enjoy my Adobe Spark video. 

 

Post #1 Maglev Train

A maglev train is a train in Japan and it’s really fast. It levitates too and it levitates by magnets. When magnets repel the train levitates. For example the same poles repel and opposite poles attract.

My group’s idea for the train is that we put 11 strip magnets  across from each other and attached to those strip magnets were ring magnets and donut magnets we put 11 ring magnets and donut magnets.

 

The only thing that worked for my group while we were building our train was the magnets were levitating. The thing that failed today were cutting the magnets.

 

My experience with working with my group kind of good and kind of bad. One person in my group was working with me on taping and making sure the magnets were repelling. The other person was doing work when we told him to but sometimes he would just be sitting around. I think that this project is going to be very fun.
