Windy wind. lego car
This is my project about wind. I tested sails and different size wheels on lego cars to see how far I could get them by just blowing them. It was interesting.
Awesome work Christibel! You have been very thorough with your testing, observations, recording and comments. It looks like you have learned that less friction of a smooth dry surface can help something move faster, that weight distribution is important for balance, designs need to be suitable for the amount of wind, and that the bigger wheels and bigger sails were better. So much learning! Tino pai tou mahi! Maybe you might have a go trying the hairdryer with a bigger lego car.
Please structure your comments as follows: Positive - Something done well Thoughtful - A sentence to let us know you actually read/watched or listened to what they had to say Helpful - Give some ideas for next time or ask a question you want to know more about
