Solar Solutions
Students will construct and test their own solar cookers as they collaborate with fellow solar cooker enthusiasts from other countries.  They will create recipes, produce "infomercials", design website additions, and prepare informative booklets to educate other students about the environmental benefits of solar cooking in developing countries.  A detailed description of the project can be viewed at:  www.miamicountryday.org/aces. 

See webcasts of a fantastic student designed solar cooker and directions on how to create your own box cooker. Go to the webcasts section of our website.

Students are actively engaged in constructing their own solar cookers, sketching out their designs, preparing food to be solar cooked, measuring temperatures in their solar cookers and listing ideas on how to improve their cookers.

Students are involved in many solar cooking projects; especially the difficult job of tasting the great food they've prepared in the solar ovens.
