Primary 7/6 have completed their collaborative topic with Stoneyburn. Our topic was an Eco topic about renewable energy, how the land is used and focused on wind farms. We have built our own wind turbines testing out the difference in blade shapes, amount and wind speeds. We have acted out a pro and cons protest to wind farms. We have tested wind speeds and how to use the wind to our advantage. We have looked at renewable and non renewable energy sources and the future in Scotland. To finish it all of we visited Whitelee wind farm in Glasgow to ask more questions and see the giants in action. Also look at our separate blog on poetry as we used the wind turbines for a poetry project with Julie Douglas.
