S'mores and solar ovens highlight SEMAA camp

Photo Album

Rising third-graders Denise Lara Diaz (left) and Leia Richardson aren’t afraid to get their hands dirty as they make terrariums for planting flowers. Students in a recent NASA SEMAA camp used measuring skills to layer charcoal, pebbles and soil in recycled plastic bottles. Leia is wearing a “moon visor,” which students made by cutting a crescent moon shape out of paper and dyeing it in a mixture of water, soap and food coloring. (Contributed photos by Kim Barto)

Rising second-grader Suliamaan Afzam (left) licks his lips as he and Tycoria Jamison place s’mores in a solar oven made of cardboard, black paper and aluminum foil. Students left the s’mores outside to bake for two hours using only energy from the sun to illustrate a lesson on solar power. Temperatures inside the homemade “ovens” reached at least 120 degrees, which was as high as the thermometer could measure.
