How is wind formed?

How is wind made? This is the question that many of the students wanted to know. We role played, drew pictures and diagrams on paper and in the computer programme paint. We read books to find information and watched a few videos on you tube.

The wind

Wind is air that travels. The hot air rises. The cold air rushes in to take it’s place. Air has a little bit of weight in it. This is why we feel it on our face.

How wind happens
The sun heats the land and the water. The land heats up first because the water is deeper. The hot air rises up and the cold air rushes to take its place.
