Paper pin wheels


We made paper pin wheels in class and investigated what kinds of energy can be used to spin the wheels.

  • We could use mechanical energy to move them with our fingers.
  • We could blow on them and use the chemical energy in our body to transform and make wind to turn the wheel.
  • We could use magnetic energy to move it if we put a paper clip on and used a magnet.
  • We could run outside and use the wind energy.
  • We also made a pin wheel from metal and it could even move using heat energy.
