FINDINGS

	Place name on school grounds	Number of Spins in 15 seconds
1.	Field	0
2.	Old J Block site	0
3.	Grass hill in quad	0
4.	Tennis Court gate	0

CONCLUSION:

I think that there was no wind around the field because everyone in my group was crowding around our anemometer.

There may have been no wind around the old J Block because there were fences and buildings around.

In the tenniss court, I don't think there was much wind because of the trees and gates.

And Lastly, I don't think there would have been any wind on the hill because It was not a very windy day and the buildings around the hill.
