Class Response: Kites


Flying kites is an easy task, but did you know there is science behind it. It's all air pressure. when you run with your kite in the wind air moves downward which causes the air to go upward. when the air goes quickly and fast there is less air pressure and more pressure below the kite. this also makes the kite move above. to fly a kite you need wind. The wind you'll most probably get is local winds because most people don't live close to beaches so the land heats up and the hot air rises. then, the cool air so below pushing the kite.
