Product Description

Explore wind energy hands-on with the Vernier Basic Wind Experiment Kit – Classroom Pack. This popular STEM kit lets students test blade designs, generate electricity (0.5–3 V), and lift weights, perfect for classroom experiments or science fair projects.

The Classroom Pack includes materials for eight groups of 2–4 students, each assembling hubs and blade sets. Students evaluate designs using one of three teacher-built test stations with tower, base, and generator. Ideal for teaching renewable energy, engineering design, and critical thinking in middle and high school STEM classrooms.
