Kid Wind Design Challenge Team Name: the narwhals Designed By: Lauren Kubiak and Aiden Mccarthy 5-8 Coaches Name: Pamela Urbanek-Childs Address: Clarence Middle School

Our Team Tell us about your team: Our team, The narwhals are from Clarence Middle School in the 5-8 division. The narwhals are made up of 1 girl and one boy in the 6 th grade. We had a few challenges because of 4 snow days.

Design Brief Problem Statement (What is the problem that your teacher has given you to solve?): There is not enough fossil fuels to produce electricity for ever. Fossil fuels include Cole, oil, natural gas. Wind can last forever. We need to make wind one of the top sources of energy in America. Design Statement (How are you going to solve this problem? Include the process you are going to take to solve the given problem) : To solve this problem we are going to build a blades for a wind turbine out of either Balsa wood, Cora plast or card board.

Design Brief Constraints (What you can and cannot do/use.): Weight Ease of construction Card board You can’t use metal Can’t be longer than 10” Maximum limit for blades is 12 blades Stength Areodynamic shape Deliverables (What materials and items you need to solve this problem)

Constraint: Strength Constraint: cardboard Constraint: ease of constructio n Constraint: weight Constraint: Cora plast Total Design Design Design Design Design Design Table Best Worst Ranking
