Register your class for the Solar Oven Challenge!

GreenLearning Canada is now accepting entries for the Solar Oven Challenge. Participants may range from grade 3 through to grade 12 and from science classes to environmental clubs. Teachers may register their classes by mid-May 2019 for a chance to win a class prize.

In the Solar Oven Challenge, students are invited to use our detailed construction plans to build working models of a solar oven. It is designed to teach students about solar heat, solar electricity and other clean energy technologies, but can be modified to incorporate culinary arts, food safety and culture. You may use the solar oven construction plan provided at re-energy.ca, or your students can design their own plans.

As students explore renewable energy hands-on, they can expect to:

• Discover the fundamental principles of biology, chemistry and physics,
• See the application of science and technology to some of today's most important environmental issues,
• Enjoy the challenge of building working models of a solar oven.
