| − | ==Process (How to do the activity)==
| |
| − | | |
| − | 1. Paint a soda can black paint . If you don’t have paint you can use a felt marker
| |
| − | , or even wrap the
| |
| − | can with black paper. Secure the paper with tape or rubber bands. This helps the can absorb
| |
| − | heat.
| |
| − | <br>2. Use kabob stick to punch a hole through
| |
| − | one of the long sides of the shoebox. The
| |
| − | hole should be about 2” from the back of the
| |
| − | box. This is for the thermometer.
| |
| − | <br>3. You may have to add several layers of
| |
| − | cardboard inside. This lets the thermometer reach the inside of the can. It also adds
| |
| − | insulation. Try wrapping the cardboard with aluminum foil to reflect heat onto the can.
| |
| − | <br>4. Attach another reflector with tape. Puncture the reflectors with kabob sticks, and
| |
| − | and slide them through the reflectors. use the sticks
| |
| − | to hold the reflectors open.
| |
| − | <br>5. Try using a black-painted can and a plain can to see how
| |
| − | fast each heats up. Make a chart to record your results.
| |
| − | <br>6. Lay the shoebox on its side in the sun. You can lean it against a wall to face the
| |
| − | sun. Fill the soda can about 3/4 full with water, and place it in the box. Insert the
| |
| − | thermometer, and record the temperature. record the temperature
| |
| − | again at regular intervals (15 minutes or more).

| − | ==Developmental Questions (What discussion questions)==
| |
| − | # why we have to wrap shoe box with black paper?
| |
| − | # can we use black paint insted of balck paper?
| |
| − | | |
| − | ==Evaluation (Questions for assessment of the child)==
| |
| − | # what is the role of black paper in this activity?
| |
| − | # which is good for the solar cookoer -black paper or white paper?
