Nonfiction Blog

 


 


A general nonfiction topic I really like is amusement


park rides and attractions. A specific topic is roller coasters.


I have always loved to ride rides, it is so fun. Some things I


know about roller coasters are: There are two types of roller


coasters, wooden and steel coasters. Another thing I know


about roller coasters is that some coasters have metal sides


and then when you go over special tracks you will go


shooting very fast. Then sometimes you’ll go shooting


toward the sky upward afterward. (An example is Sky


Rocket at Kennywood in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.)

These are the special tracks that make you go really


fast.
