🎉💡 When Science Hits Different! 💡🎉
Ms. Puhr's 8th grade students didn’t just study forces and energy—they worked it to the max! 🌬️⚡ After tons of trial and error (and some serious brainstorming 🧠), they designed a wind turbine that actually generates electricity. 💨🔋
From broken blades to epic breakthroughs, they learned that real science = making mistakes, asking big questions, and going for it again and again. 🔁💥
Big shoutout to these future innovators—you’re out here building the future, one gust of wind at a time. 🌎✨
