Floating Trains: An Exploration of Magnetism and MagLev Trains
by Crystal Williamson
This is a lesson plan made to target the fifith grade standard on how noncontact forces impact one another. It can be adapted to grades 5-12. Students will explore magnetism and polarization, research both MagLev and traditaional trains and then engineer their own versions of a train.
