If you‘re visiting NYC with kids don‘t miss the New York Transit Museum. And read this before you go. Even if you just love NYC, give this a quick read. A bit of NYC subway history and some great art, the creation of which is explained at the end.

Leftcoastzen The Transit museum is amazing! 3y
megnews @Leftcoastzen isn‘t it? My teens, who are a bit museum-weary from me dragging them to so many, absolutely loved it! 3y

#RedRoseSeptember Day 25: All the bright thinkers were at a loss as to how to solve the traffic that made the streets of New York during the 1800s a veritable mayhem with stagecoaches and buggies mingling with pigs & sheep.It was a visionary named Alfred Ely Beach, a publisher and an inventor who came up with the brilliant idea to build an underground tunnel with a #GroovyTrain. My review of this amazing story: https://wp.me/pDlzr-cmu

This SF story is written by Shana Corey and illustrated by Red Nose studio. It‘s about New York City and an inventor who creates a super sized fan designed train. That is pushed through all the underground by pure wind force. Teach strategy: IR. EL: Integrate speaking, listening, reading and writing activities. UDL: Enhance capacity for monitoring progress.

DrSpalding A bit better but see previous comment. This would not be considered science fiction. 5y

I had never heard of Alfred Ely Beach and his subway, but I‘m glad his story has seen the light of day. The illustrations on this one are stunners. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
