2nd and 3rd class have been learning about sustainable energy. With all the concerns about possible energy shortages in the news, we decided to look at some different power option that exist. We focused on wind turbines.

We learned a little bit about wind turbines and discussed the positives and negatives about them. We then explored how they work. We also had the opportunity to see photos of the inside of a wind turbine and were able to see how the wind power can be turned into electricity and stored. We then created our own windmills to allow us to see the wind power in motion.
