These are the images before and after we made the Rain gauge and Wind vane.There are also images of the materials used to make them.We made them by
Rain gauge:We took a rain gauge ruler and pasted it on a clear plastic bottle.When it rains,we would just calculate the amount of rain collected by using the rain gauge ruler.
Wind vane: We took a paper plate and marked its ends with the directions such as north,south,east and west.Then,we took another paper plate and cut out the arrow and arrow tail shapes.We took a straw and cut small slits at each end and put the arrow and arrow tail at either sides.After that,we took a pencil and poked it through the center of the paper plate with the directions.We used a safety pin to poke through the straw and the eraser of the pencil to join them together.Then,we just used a compass pointing to the north direction to calculate the direction of wind and how windy it was.
