Step into the shoes of a scientist and make your own research tools at the library! Out in the field, researchers use special tools to explore the natural world. Learn how to make and use these neat tools yourself.

This four-part series consists of four free, 45-minute learning sessions, perfect for elementary-aged learners. While the four parts of the series are meant to work together, each session is designed to also offer stand-alone science education. If you miss one session, you can check the calendar and catch it at a different library branch. These sessions do not require pre-registration but do have limited capacity.

Make an Anemometer
In this third session of the Engineering Scientist Tools series, learn about anemometers, tools that helps measure wind speed and direction, and how to make one.
