Solar Ovens


Last week, Room 4 carried out an experiment about Solar Ovens. This is how we made Solar Ovens: with a pizza box, gladwrap, tinfoil, black paper, scissors and glue or tape. First we had to write our plan down on how we guessed how it would work. we then got into groups of 3. Then we put the box together with all the materials provided. Next we put the ovens in the sun so that the bread could cook. When it was cooking some of the ovens got blown over and the bread fell out and the stick fell over and the flap closed. At two thirty we went outside to get the bread to see if it was cooked, unluckily only one side of the bread was cooked and the other side was still as plain as normal bread. We then put our ovens inside and cut the bread into three even pieces for each of the three people in the group. We had a choice to put either jam, apricot jam, marmite or nothing. In the end we all enjoyed the bread/toast and thought that solar ovens were a good idea.
