Kites =D



In science we went out and flew kites. It was super fun, but our paper kites that we made didn't fly that well. There wasn't much of a breeze to carry them. But on our worksheet we pretended there was a breeze and said it was a local winds causing or kites to "fly". While we were outside we learned about the difference between local and global winds. Our kites flew because of local winds that are caused by land and sea breezes.During the day there is a sea breeze becasue the cool air is coming from the sea. At night there is a land breeze since the hot air from the ocean rises and there is cool air coming from the land.
