History of Sailing

We have been learning about the History of Sailing. This is part of our preparation for Beach Week(s). This rotation has two parts. Students learnt about the history of sailing and wind turbines. 

   

Both wind turbines and sails on a boat adjust their angle and direction to capture the wind as they move. The blades of a wind turbine work using the same principles of lift and drag as an aeroplane wing, a sail or wing foils on the America's Cup boats.
