Making Solar Ovens Lesson Plan

In this lesson plan, students will learn about renewable energy by constructing their own solar ovens using simple materials like cardboard boxes, aluminum foil, and plastic wrap. They will explore the science behind solar energy, including how sunlight can be converted into heat energy to cook food. The activity will involve assembling the ovens, placing food items like s’mores inside, and observing the cooking process under direct sunlight. Through hands-on experimentation, students will gain an understanding of the environmental benefits of solar energy and its practical applications.
