Wind Energy Experiments and Writing

In Science Class we spent two days playing with mini wind turbines and collecting data and observations as Wind Engineers!  We were in search of variables that affect the amount of energy a wind turbine can produce.  Through our experiments we noted that wind speed and the angle of the blades has an affect on the amount of energy produced.  We then practiced our nonfiction reading strategies to uncover the pros and cons of wind energy in two articles and one video.  This week we will be putting our knowledge into an opinion piece of writing!  Is wind energy a good choice for our planet?
