Students will build and use an anemometer to calculate wind speed and then use the wind speed to determine the affect wind has on temperature and the temperature that you feel (wind chill). Students
In this lesson students will engineer paper airplanes. They will run 20 trials measuring and recording distance of flight. Students will make a histogram with the given data.
This hands-on lesson uses vermicomposting to apply virtually all of the science & engineering practices as well as several in math. Enough for a unit but a few stand-alone pieces can help your
