https://padlet.com/nixon1/ssdqpg8jvfpj Can you relate ideas and then extend your thinking to other topics? en-us 2016-11-06 23:35:49 UTC 2026-02-18 20:32:46 UTC hello@padlet.com nixon1 https://padlet.com/nixon1/ssdqpg8jvfpj/wish/135648347 2016-11-06 23:36:59 UTC https://padlet.com/nixon1/ssdqpg8jvfpj/wish/135648347 https://padlet.com/nixon1/ssdqpg8jvfpj/wish/135652921 Wind turbine blades are big enough for people to crawl through.For emergency's they have elevators,are used for people to climb in the blades and repair things. 

Another thing that relates to wind tubines are  dams  because they create renewable energy .  ]]> 2016-11-07 00:43:20 UTC https://padlet.com/nixon1/ssdqpg8jvfpj/wish/135652921 https://padlet.com/nixon1/ssdqpg8jvfpj/wish/135652928 Most wind turbines have elevators so people can go inside the blades to fix them. To fix the blades people have to put locks and brakes on them so that the blades don't turn while they are inside the blades.
This relates to a helicopter because they both have blades. They also relate to windmills. ]]> 2016-11-07 00:43:25 UTC https://padlet.com/nixon1/ssdqpg8jvfpj/wish/135652928 https://padlet.com/nixon1/ssdqpg8jvfpj/wish/135652934 All wind turbines have generators that convert wind into electricity. The generator is found in the head of the turbine. The head of the turbine is 60 - 100 metres up off the ground and the blades are generally half the length of the turbine it's self. Wind turbines relate to dams in the fact that they both produce renewable energy; and these two sources of energy give us over 3/4 of NZ's power.]]> 2016-11-07 00:43:29 UTC https://padlet.com/nixon1/ssdqpg8jvfpj/wish/135652934 https://padlet.com/nixon1/ssdqpg8jvfpj/wish/135652937 The wind turbine makes power they also have blades that spin to make the power. Some wind turbines also have elevators inside them.
This makes me think about what a fan is.

If the wires inside of the wind turbines break the oil can escape and there is a high chance it can shut down. Wind turbines relate to windmills but the only one difference, windmills are used for getting rid of frost and dead leaves of trees, wind turbines are used for technology and power like we all use today.]]> 2016-11-07 00:43:41 UTC https://padlet.com/nixon1/ssdqpg8jvfpj/wish/135652946 https://padlet.com/nixon1/ssdqpg8jvfpj/wish/135652961 A wind turbine has 3 large spinning 
blades that generate electricity to power people all around New Zealand. However if one of these were to break a wind turbine worker would have to climb up the ladder, crawl inside the blade to locate and fix the problem. 

Extended abstract 
We believe the wind turbines that generate electricity relate to the windmills that are on orchards. They have a purpose of creating wind to blow the frost of the trees to stop them from dying. ]]> 2016-11-07 00:43:54 UTC https://padlet.com/nixon1/ssdqpg8jvfpj/wish/135652961 https://padlet.com/nixon1/ssdqpg8jvfpj/wish/135652963 A wind turbine has three large blades that generates electricity. The blades are big enough for electric engineers to crawl through the wind turbine so the engineers can fix it. They remind me of the water wheels, because the water wheels and the wind turbines are both renewable and they turn around in a circle.]]> 2016-11-07 00:43:55 UTC https://padlet.com/nixon1/ssdqpg8jvfpj/wish/135652963 https://padlet.com/nixon1/ssdqpg8jvfpj/wish/135653025 The wind turbine has three blades that rotate in the same direction. These blades are big enough for a person to climb into the blade to locate a problem, and fix the it, but you do have to crawl inside them. These wind turbine made Emma think about houses or buildings. This is because the turbine create electricity which the houses or buildings use. Wind turbines make Chapera think of a fan. This is because the blades spin around like a fans blades do. The turbines are almost the same as fans, but the wind turbines are a lot bigger.]]> 2016-11-07 00:44:55 UTC https://padlet.com/nixon1/ssdqpg8jvfpj/wish/135653025 https://padlet.com/nixon1/ssdqpg8jvfpj/wish/135653074 A wind turbine is a large structure that creates power through wind. A wind turbine generates power by spinning around with the 3 blades on the top, if a wind turbine has a problem or needs to be fixed they can get into the elevators and climb inside the blades to fix something to prevent problems.
 This makes us think about dams and how it creates renewable energy.

It has three propellers. It also conduct electricity by the three propellers spinning round in the wind the more wind means the more electricity and the less wind means less electricity.
This relates to the propellers on the helicopters or on planes.The more power you give to the propellers the faster our higher it goes.]]> 2016-11-07 00:47:10 UTC https://padlet.com/nixon1/ssdqpg8jvfpj/wish/135653236 https://padlet.com/nixon1/ssdqpg8jvfpj/wish/135653277 Wind turbines are tall metal structures that are placed all around the country to produce electricity. Wind turbines cant be found in and near urban areas as they need a lot of wind and space so their blades spin without causing damage to other items near by. They also have a elevator inside so engineers can repair and replace, blades, motors and other things a wind turbine may need. This made me think about dams and solar panels and how they both create renewable energy. ]]> 2016-11-07 00:47:42 UTC https://padlet.com/nixon1/ssdqpg8jvfpj/wish/135653277 https://padlet.com/nixon1/ssdqpg8jvfpj/wish/135653295 Some wind turbines have elevators in them, the wind turbines are very big and they spin. This makes me think about how they spin and make electricity.]]> 2016-11-07 00:47:54 UTC https://padlet.com/nixon1/ssdqpg8jvfpj/wish/135653295 https://padlet.com/nixon1/ssdqpg8jvfpj/wish/135653348 Wind turbines are used for generating electricity. The propeller like blades spin the wind to turn the turbine . 
the more wind means more speed which makes more electricity.
This makes me think about helicopter blades creating speed to lift into the air.
