This week (as you've probably noticed) students will be asking you if they can borrow that leftover pizza box and if they can take the tin foil to school. We're making solar ovens! After doing a lot of research, students are finally going to be constructing, and hopefully testing their solar ovens. I've been watching the weather, and it's not looking very good for us - everyone start sending positive energy to the sun, and maybe it will actually peek out from behind the clouds.
After solar oven construction (so we can pull them out at a moment's notice), we'll be finishing up our renewable energy unit with a simple simulation on how the rate of energy use changes our needs for developing energy producing technologies. We'll be holding a short quiz on their energy notes (pg32) early next week.
