Mrs. Plate's 6th Grade
   Solar Oven Project
This project is HOT!
Energy is all around you.  It has many names...one of those is HEAT!
By the end of the month, you will 
                ...know WHAT heat is
                ...learn HOW heat travels
                ...build a COOL solar oven and COOK in it!

This project is divided into three parts. 

In Part I, you will find out why and how heat moves.  You will use the Internet for research, then answer questions about solar energy and heat transfer. 

In Part II, you will use what you've learned about solar energy and heat transfer to build and test a solar oven. 

In Part III, you will use your oven to cook a snack, then evaluate your experiment.
