These materials will be wonderful for my students to use for years to come. This project is already completely funded. I just have to formally create this DonorsChoose project to capture the funding. These supplies will be ahuge help for the kids. The turbine-related products will be used for the kids to learn about renewable (wind) energy. Various groups from my classes will design and create their own turbine. It will then be connected to a multi-meter to determine its voltage and amperage production. The winning group from each class will then go to Penn State (Univ Park) on April 3rd to enter their turbine into a state-wide "KidWind" competition. The hydraulic arm, ping pong ball shooters, and mousetrap vehicles will also provide additional STEM learning for my students. Lastly, the box fans will be used to produce wind in order to test the turbines, and the document camera will make it easier to lecture to the whole class at once.
