Anemometers

The children in Upper Prep 1 have been making anemometers today to try and investigate which would be the most suitable place within the school grounds for a wind turbine. 

Home learners were able to collaborate on line and have tested their anemometers at home.  Harry also kept Miss Fenny right so that she made his correctly in the classroom!  

The children worked well on Google Breakout Rooms to discuss the options for the testing sites thinking about the amount of wind, barriers and practical issues.    

When we went out into the school grounds to test our different locations, we took the home learners with us on a Google Meet so that they too could be involved with our data collection and see what was happening.

In our next lesson, the children will be analysing the results and creating a report to make recommendations, along with explaining which sites were not suitable.
