What? Explore the power of wind energy and build your very own super sailboat!
How? Look through the slides and explore wind energy. Watch Nanogirl's video to find out how to create your own super sailboat!
Reflect: How far can your boat travel in one breath? Does a big breath help or hinder your boat - what does this make you think about sailing a boat in a gale or gusty conditions?
Can you blow through a straw and get your boat to turn left or right in the water, being steered only by the wind?
What about an obstacle course by putting floating things in the water? What happens to the boat if you change the size, shape or material of the sail?
Share: Share a photo or video of your super sailboat on the Science padlet!
