1 Kid Wind Design Challenge Team Name: the energy owls Designed By: Emma Dunn and Alexa Marcinkowski 5-8 Coaches Name: Pamela Urbanek Childs Email Address: PUrbanekChilds@clarenceschools.org Clarence Middle School http://challenge.kidwind.org/online

2 Our Team Tell us about your team: Our team name is The Energy Owls. We attend Clarence Middle School and are in 6 grade. We are trying to solve an energy crisis together. We became partners by the luck of the draw that our teacher picked out.

3 Design Brief Problem Statement (What is the problem that your teacher has given you to solve?): We are trying to solve a worldwide energy crisis. Design Statement (How are you going to solve this problem? Include the process you are going to take to solve the given problem) :We plan to solve this crisis by creating the most effective wind turbine. This turbine will produce the most energy with as little pollution as possible. I am creating my blades out of balsa wood and there will be three of them.

4 Design Brief Constraints (What you can and cannot do/use.): Deliverables (What materials and items you needed to solve this problem) Blade designs Design plans Teamwork kid wind blade testers Hub Dowels Hot glue Tape Balsa wood Can useCannot use Lightweight materialsnoodles Balsa woodsteel Corogated plasticMaterials larger than 3 feet cardboardThick wood Thin woodspaper Recycled materials within constraints Extremely detailed blades
