What will you do in your spare time? Have you ever seen a windsock(风向袋) blowing in the wind? Well, you can make one of your own! This is an interesting project that you can do with things you may have. You just need to follow a few easy steps.
Prepare one piece of heavy colored paper, five ribbons(丝带)strong tape(胶带),a string and a pencil at first,.
Step 1; Draw pictures on the paper. You can write your name on it Do anything that will make it different from others.
Step 2: Make the paper into the shape of a tube(管). Then stick the tube together with the strong tape at each end and in the middle.
Step 3: Use the pencil to make a hole into both sides of the tube. The holes should be only on one end of the tube. Pull the string through both holes. Then tie the ends of the sting together.
Step4: Now make five holes around the top of the other end of the tube. Put a ribbon through each of the holes. Tie a knot in the end. Make sure the knots are bigger than the holes.
Now your windsock is ready. But how does it work? The shape of the tube plays an important part.
