Kites fly! No Lie! You know it! Science!

Well folks if you have a third grade education and can decifer from the title that this blog is about kites. Give yourself a pat on the back. Yes, it is true that in mid-may the omega science classes made kites when the sixth's graders were testing, and then the next week took them out to fly! Now, the kite project came with worksheets, tests and lectures about wind. For instance, when we flew our kites, the wind that picked up our kites was local wind, not global wind. The difference is that global winds travel long distances and spread out, while local winds travel shorter distances and stay in a certain spot. So as you can see, learning about wind dosen't have to be boring, seeing all you have to do is go outside and fly a kite. Later days!
