Recently my students participated in a STEM competition where the topic was the future of farming. They learned about the different ways that food will be produced in the future. They also learned about the challenge of providing adequate food to a growing world population and that a large number of people currently do not get enough food to lead a healthy and active life.
My students immediately asked what they could do to help others. After researching on the UNICEF website, we learned about the Power Bands. Once they are synced with an app, they track daily activity which earns them points. As students earn points, they unlock funding UNICEF uses to deliver lifesaving packets of therapeutic food to severely malnourished children around the world. The Power Bands would allow my students to help others while being active.
