Today we built a crane/winch system and learned a bit about power and efficiency. The students loved to play with the model so much that they didn’t want to clean up. The topic for next week is the wind turbine. We found a lot of pieces on the floor and we ask that the kids clean up a bit faster and stop losing pieces.
Also for the kids, here’s a picture of the helicopter I mentioned in class today, as you can see it’s lifting a small house.
