Sources of energy!

Today we are exploring moving air as a source of energy. The children made airplanes and used straws to blow through and used their own air to move the plane. They will be bringing them home today so ask your child to explain what is happening. We measured the distance that their planes travelled. The children came up with ideas on how to measure the distance. Some ideas they came up was using measuring tape and using markers to lay down side by side. We decided to use the marker idea.
