Once you have made an anemometer we are going to record the wind speed.

Group size: 5

You will need:

Anemometer (above) 

Roles:

• Timekeeper
• Counter
• Recorder
• Anemometer Manager
• Wind generator

1. Mount the anemometer in a place that has full access to the wind from all directions.
2. When the time keeper says "Go", the counter in each group will count how many times the marked cup passes them in one minute and write it down.
3. If possible, repeat the above step four (4) times and record the average number of spins on the chart.

FINDINGS

• Record how many times it spins using the table below.

You will need to create the wind yourself by blowing. Get 4 different wind speeds by blowing.

You will need to time them and count the number of spins.

• Can you make a statement connecting the number of spins of your anemometer and the speed of the wind? 

CONCLUSION:

Roald Dahl Fantastic Mr Fox Task

 1 What are we doing this term for reading?We are reading about Fantastic Mr fox

2 By only looking at the cover what can we infer or guess about the story.When I look at the front cover I saw a fox and some farmer I think that the farmer might trying to kill the fox.
