Students will build a solar oven and learn about solar power, a form of renewable energy.
The Energy Coalition will send you plastic wrap, tape, black construction paper, sun paper, and aluminum pans to bring this lesson to life.
Lesson Objective: Students will explain how humans use the sun’s thermal energy to cook food and keep them warm. Students will know that darker colors can absorb the sun’s thermal energy and that lighter colors will reflect it.
Suggested Teaching Time: 40-50 minutes
NGSS Standards: K-PS3-1., 2-PS1-1, 2-PS1-2, 2-PS1-4
