Science and Math Informal Learning Educators (SMILE) Abstract:
In this two part activity, learners become draft detectives by constructing their own draft catchers to detect drafts around windows or doors. Next, they make draft stoppers to reduce air flow and conserve energy. This activity helps learners understand the importance of reducing drafts and preventing heat or cold air loss. Note: the second part of this activity requires the use of a sewing machine (not included in cost of materials).
