Introduction
Today you will be going on a webquest about Wind Turbines! Does'nt that sound exciting?!? As you know our science fair project is going to be about wind turbines, particularly the rotor blades of wind turbines. This webquest will give you necessary background knowledge you will need to complete the science fair project. Remember only 3-4 students will be going to the science fair, the harder you work, and more thoroughly you answer these questions, the better your chances will be of representing our class. Good luck!
***All answers must be IN YOUR OWN WORDS, don't be a cheater***
