Happy STEM-Thursday! Hope you got a chance to make your windsock? Again, for those of you who made your windsock BEFORE I posted the "revised" one with the constraints listed, I apologize, and you do not have to revise yours.  Thanks to a parent's question, I had to revert back to the assignment to look at what I posted.  I was wondering why she asked me that question, when I thought it was stated in the instructions?  Well, it wasn't.  ๐Ÿ˜ฎ๐Ÿ˜ณ So I had to make the correction and repost the assignment.  Thank you for understanding.
