Tiny windmills

This paragraph is about tiny 1.8 mm windmills that can power devices and one day may even power a whole house. Almost a thousand tiny windmills can fit inside a cellphone case! This little windmill can stand heavy winds because it is using nickel alloy. These windmills are almost always blowing wind.The creator of the tiny windmill was Jung-Chin Chiao with help from his assistant Smitha Rao. Chiao thought of this idea when he wanted to use a windmill to power his devices with out using a big wind turbine. Researches state that almost one hundred tiny windmills could be enough to charge a phone for an emergency. Chiao and his assistant are already talking to a big company about putting the windmills in stores. 




  •  My mom told me to turn on the turbine because she was hot.
  •  For my birthday my sister made me a wafer cake.
  • my brother bought me a prototype of the Statue of Liberty
  •  At the petting zoo I saw a man harnessing a horse
  •  My mom said my stereo battery was durable.
  •  "How can you withstand the cold?" asked my brother.
  •  my teacher told me I need to have an arduous effort. 
  •  My brother said it was impossible to count all the microns in an object.
  •  I was brainstorming for what I should have for dinner and thought of nothing.
