First of all, I want to introduce the students about the power that the sun has on earth, and how it is a great source of energy directly to living things. I will begin the lesson by talking about the process of photosynthesis and how we get to consume the energy that was produced through it. This demonstration will be a simple food chain that the students previously had studied in another lesson. Students are going to explain the relationship between the sun and the photosynthesis process. Second, I will introduce the students to the power that the sun has directly to other objects. For example, I will have my students to place a candle outside the classroom, which will be in direct contact with the sunlight. The students are going to observe that the longer the candle is exposed to sunlight, the candle will start to melt. By doing this introductory activities, the children are going to have a better understanding of how solar panels work to produce energy. 

In the next activity, the students are going to analyze the weather in Arizona. They are going to determine which places in the state of Arizona are the best choices to have large scales of solar panel fields to produce energy. For example, students are going to have their own map of the Arizona State and based on what they have studied about the weather, they are going to present their project to the class. Students are going to present which regions are better to install this power plants of solar energy. The students therefore are going to get involved in a classroom discussion about solar panels.
