How can sun - pots help to determine the period of rotation of the sun?

Because sun spots appear to move across the surface due to the sun's rotation. Observe the sun by projecting its image onto a piece of paper through binoculars or a small telescope. (Never look directly at the sun of course with or without binoculars or telescope unless you want to immediately go permanently blind!) Observe over a few weeks day by day and note the time when a sun spot just appears at the edge of the sun. Track this spot day by day and note the day when it reaches the other side and disappears. It will therefore have appeared to travel over half the sun's surface (the half we can see) because of the sun's rotation. If you double this figure (to take into account the apparent journey across the surface of the sun that we cannot see) then this figure will be the time for the sun's rotation.

What is the average cost of a solar oven?
I would expect some variations, depending on the country where you buy it. I bought one in Bolivia, in 2010, for Bs. 850 or so - something like US$ 120. This model is about one meter x half a meter, with space for 4-5 pots. The same company also offered one that was half that size (only about half a meter wide, instead of one meter - space for two pots), for a little more than half the price - somewhere around US$ 70 perhaps.
What is a solar cooker made of?
A solar box cooks because the interior of the box is heated by the energy of the sun. Sunlight, both direct and reflected, enters the solar box through the glass or plastic top. It turns to heat energy when it is absorbed by the dark absorber plate and cooking pots. This heat input causes the temperature inside of the solar box cooker to rise until the heat loss of the cooker is equal to the solar heat gain. Temperatures sufficient for cooking food and pasteurizing water are easily achieved.
