Solar Energy

We waited for a good sunny day to build our solar cookers.  We built them in the morning and let pieces of apple cook in them all day.  We also had pieces of apple that weren't in the cooker.  At the end of the day some students had apples that had gotten so warm they had turned brown and soft.  The outside apples were still pretty crisp because of the cold day.  It was a good experiment and showed us how the sun's energy can be harnessed.
