Here's a link to a website I found:


http://www.kidwind.org


There are wind energy classes out there and they are offering their lessons for download at http://www.kidwind.org/PDFs.html

I've met Michael Arquin, the founder of KidWind, in person.

Great guy, great organization. And they give great seminars for teachers on how to teach wind power to kids.

The little DC motor they sell works nicely for science fair wind projects (it's low RPM, hard to find!) and the gearing system they sell is cool too.

Thumbs up on Kidwind!
