8. Bird Silhouettes
Students make bird silhouettes to prevent birds from crashing into windows. Introduction Pollinators are attracted to specific colours and may get confused by man-made objects. When there is a pane ...
9. What's Shakin'?

10. Active Energy Sources
... from moving water), geothermal energy (heat energy from the earth) and energy from the sun, wind, oceans, and the earth's biomass (such as wood). In 2005, almost 61 per cent of Canada's electricity (and ...
11. Wind Turbine Model
Students see how the movement of wind can be used to produce other kinds of energy. Introduction People have been using wind as a source of power for centuries. The earliest wind-powered machines ...
12. Poop Factory

14. Windbag
Students discover the fastest way to inflate a windbag using Bernoulli's Principle. Introduction Bernoulli's Principle states that as the speed of air increases, its pressure decreases. When you ...
