It was too windy for the woods so we went to the park and explored wind! I challenged the groups to find the windiest place in the park – we discussed how to measure the wind. With some encouragement the children decided to use tissues and estimate the angle of the blown tissue- ranging from 0-90 degrees. The windiest place was on a hill.
We also experienced the effect of air resistance by running down the hill with our coats open or done up 🙂
