**Alternative Energy Projects**
1. Create a company logo 2. Put Big 6 Steps into Wiki page. 3. Create 10 Questions using the Big 6 model and get Mr. Garrison Approval 4. Decide on how information will be presented 5. Tag wiki pages for grading. 6. For Big6 3.2 use "Wonder Wheel" and Skitch to create search terms 7. Bookmark 20 websites on Diigo and have at least 2 sources highlighted on those web pages for each question.

1.1
For this project, we spend our time typing up questions. Our group choose solar energy because we thought it was more interesting. With the Big Six to help us with our question, we have completed 10 fine "Why" and "What" questions. We used some useful links to gather our information.Then our group answered are 10 fine why and what questions, about Solar Energy and Solar Power.

** Questions: **
Q1):What is Solar Energy?

Q2):Why do we need Solar Power?

Q3):Why did people invent Solar Panel?

Q4): What is Solar House?

Q5):What is the amount of Solar Power used in a day in the United States?

Q6): How is Solar Power Energy different from us.

Q7): Why is Solar Energy so important to some people?

Q8): What is Solar Energy's impact on the environment?

Q9): What is Solar thermal power?

Q10): Why is Solar Energy so expensive?

Answers:
** A1):Simply, it is energy provided from the sun. **

** A2):We need Solar Power because it gives us electricity.If we need have electricity we wouldn’t have many things, such as:computers, light, television, and etc. **

** A3):Solar Panels where invented to convert sun energy into electricity, and to save energy source. **

** A4):A solar house is any house that makes good use of the suns energy. **

** A5): In full sun, you can assume about 100 watts of solar energy per square foot. **

** A6):Solar Power energy is very powerful and hits the earth regardless of whether or not we take advantage of it. **

** A7):Solar Energy is so important to some people because plants absorbs sunlight and provides food for us to eat and it gives us oxygen to breathe.If there was no Solar Energy there would be no life's. **

** A8):The Solar Energy’s impact has the it makes shade.Solar Energy is the cleanest energy source. **

** A9):Solar Power plants use superheated steam to generate electricity. **

** A10):There are many reasons why Solar Energy is so expensive.One of the reasons why Solar Energy is so expensive is because the competition are minimal. **

4.1 -4.2

For our invention, we decided to make a Solar Power Flying airplane that is controlled by a person who has the remote control, and called it "Solarplane".We first thought of using paper to make the airplane to make the invention ,but then we decided to use a plastic airplane because when it goes in the water it floats and it wouldn't get soaked.

These are the materials we need: a small piece of solar panel a plastic plane( its better if you get the ones that are controlled by a remote) Super glue or something that sticks really well {so then we use super glue and glue the small piece of solar panel on the plane. So when we fly the plane, it collects solar energy} a remote control{to control the air plane} a engine that will power the airplane

First, you put the engine that will work the airplane into the plastic airplane. Next, you glue the small piece of the solar panel and the plastic airplane together. Then, you must try it out (if it doesn't work, it is not our problem).Lastly, if you think that it will work{it must work} then put a little figure on the airplane and play with a airplane. So now that your working airplane works, Enjoy!

5.1 -5.2

So at the end our group did very well on working together, but there is still some problems. We ended up as finishing with alot of people getting alot of jobs but we worked it out together. When we did wonder Wheel we had no idea how to do it ,but at the end we all figured it out. Then again, our group was working well and it ended up great.
