Hello fellow educators! :-)
My name is Rachel Williamson and I have been a science teacher in Indiana since 2008. I love finding and sharing ideas with fellow teachers. The following is a lesson plan for 8th grade about wind energy and wind turbine. This lesson would be a great opportunity to take a field trip with your students to a near by wind farm. There is a really nice one in Benton county in Indiana and they do school tours.
I made this lesson plan in the summer of 2014 in conjunction with Purdue University's Duke Energy Academy. I haven't implemented it yet myself so if you do use it feel free to comment on the blog/ discussion page. Feedback is always great to help myself and others improve. Thank you and I hope you find this useful.
