First graders created their own anemometers as final project to wrap up their unit on weather. These adorable scientific devices measure wind speed. This class made their anemometers out of dixie cups, plaster of Paris, straws, cardboard, tape, and more dixie cups. This video shows one student testing her anemometer to measure the speed of the "wind" coming out of a fan, please note that the video has no sound.
I love the individual anemometer the students made! My students are now constantly aware of how strong the wind is when they are outside!
ReplyDeleteI had such a great time with this experiment, your ideas were fabulous Ms. Wu!
