In this activity, learners make "solar cookies," edible models of the Sun's outer layers using sugar cookies and toppings.

Learners build a solar oven from a cardboard pizza box, aluminum foil and plastic. Learners can use their oven to cook S'mores or other food in the sun.

Learners follow directions to construct a solar oven that really cooks! The solar oven uses aluminum foil to reflect sunlight into a cooking chamber, which is painted black.

In this activity, learners make their own solar oven to bake s'mores and learn about how solar energy is absorbed on Earth.

This is a classic exercise for visualizing the scale of the Solar System.
