Introduction (Covers: Who did you help?)

• A few months ago, I had the opportunity to help my younger brother, Aarav, with his school science project. 
• He was really anxious about it because it was a significant part of his grade, and he wasn’t sure how to start.

• I sat down with Aarav to brainstorm ideas and settled on building a simple wind turbine model. 
• We gathered materials from around the house and headed to the local hardware store for some essentials. 
• I helped him design the turbine, explaining the science behind how wind energy works as we built it together. 
• I chose to help him because I wanted to encourage his interest in science and alleviate some of his stress.

• The experience was incredibly fulfilling. Seeing Aarav’s eyes light up as the turbine spun for the first time filled me with joy. 
• Not only did he learn about renewable energy, but he also gained confidence in his abilities.
