Hi everyone,

Here is the form that you can fill out to say what you can bring tomorrow:

For suggestions on materials, click on the links below. I'm pretty sure we can get a solar oven together! (We may have some plastic in the robotics room, as well as the copy paper boxes and insulating paper at school. The rest can probably be found if we look carefully at home!

Page magnifiers are sold at Staples, Office Max, Barnes and Noble. Having more than one would make the cooking part go MUCH more quickly....

Remember to email, call, or text when you have an idea of what you want to bring, and I can post it to the form myself, if you aren't near a computer.
