Solar Cookers




Solar Cooker Challenge

We have been studying wind, air masses, air pressure and storms so now it is time to do something with fair weather.


Make a Solar Cooker due June 15th so we can go outside and cook. Please bring in the cooker that day rain or shine.

Requirements:
1. must have something you can cook in (shoebox, pizza box, pringles can, cereal box)
2. must have a reflective material (Aluminum foil)
3. should be a dark color so heat can be absorbed

DUE DATE: June 15th
