Day 1 of building the Functioning Model

Today was the first day that we started building our models that use our selected renewable energy sources. Our's was Geothermal, heat from the Earth. Since we cant make a model demonstrating Geothermal energy, we were given the option of either Wind Power or Solar Power. We chose Solar. The Model we wanted to build was a solar oven. We wrote down the materials we would need and the tools. We also made diagrams to show how the oven would look finished. We decided we needed....
  • Plywood
  • Wood Glue
  • Wood Screws
  • Aluminum Foil
  • 2 Hinges
  • Black Paint
  • A Saw

That is what we did today. We didn't get to constructing it because we didnt have the supplies.
