Students studied renewable and non-renewable resources in both our country and their partners, country.
Students compared and contrasted the energy access in the two countries.
They wired the solar flashlight components together.
Students used Tinkercad to design a case for the solar flashlight components. They shared files with their partners and gave each other suggestions.
Students used our existing 3D printer to print their design for the flashlight cases.
Once the flashlight case printed, students had to put them together.

At the end of the course, they had a Live Chat with their partners. Here is the chat from the US.

After the project was over, our 5th Graders blogged about their experience using Kidblog.
This project helped foster the SDGs:
This project has been very enjoyable. We're able to make a
difference in the world. It may not be a big change, but if each
person would pitch in we could change the world little by little…
It was so much fun learning how to do 3-D printing, I hope that
someday I will make something extraordinary that will help people
all around the world. I will never forget this amazing experience, I hope that maybe you will be able
to do it too!
