Another amazing morning with @MassCEC seeing how they test wind turbine blades. The fourth graders had so many questions that we ran over half an hour! #alwayslearning #renewables @BBNLowerSchool @lpconnaughton @1ME_Derrien

Shout out to the @BBNLowerSchool 4th grade team for an amazing Energy Unit Open House! The passion and learning on display gives hope to our future!@BBNHeadofSchool @4GreenandClean

Fourth grade @BBNLowerSchool getting "energized" with a trip to the Lexington solar farm. Thanks @LexingtonMass for hosting us! Special thanks to John Hanselman, Dan Boss and Mark Sandeen for the amazing tour. We learned so much! @BBNHeadofSchool @brightfieldsllc

Wonderful day learning about renewable energy options with fourth graders. Thanks Patrick @EnelGroup at the Lawrence hydroelectric power station for getting us started on this important conversation! @BBNLowerSchool @BBNHeadofSchool #renewable #PBL

Nicholas Amendolare spoke to our 4th Graders about the tragedy of the commons and shared his TED-Ed video. ift.tt/2Q7PKom

Coach B with fifth grader who wrote the proposal for a new bike unit from a desire to act on her knowledge and make a positive change to world. So proud! Thanks PE for listening to kids voices.@BBNLowerSchool @4GreenandClean

Evidence of impactful, mind shifting learning! Fifth grade proposed a change to PE include a bike unit so kids feel empowered to ride bikes vs using fossil fuel burning transportation...using what they learned in fourth grade to effect change! @BBNLowerSchool @4GreenandClean

Fourth graders learning how to solder components together for solar kinetic sculptures. Great integrative learning opportunity with maker space, art, and science! @BBNLowerSchool @BBNSchool @4GreenandClean @HQPBL

Fourth grade art class using their renewable energy knowledge to make kinetic solar sculptures in art! @BBNLowerSchool @BBNSchool

So inspired to see year long project based curriculum @BBNSchool aligned w @UNSDG2030 great example of leadership and collaboration

Thank you fourth grade for showing us your electric bike! #EcoBash2k18 @BBNLowerSchool @4GreenandClean @BBNSchool

Huge thanks to @BobHiggins20 for taking the time to chat to the 4th graders about how to develop an idea and pitch a project! Innovative ideas coming soon...@1ME_Derrien @BBNLowerSchool

#Finland will prohibit the use of coal in energy production one year ahead of schedule in 2029, and will promote deployment of #renewables bit.ly/2GMWpUa We will only meet the goals of the #ParisAgreement when countries raise #ClimateAction ambitions #Talanoa4ambition

Thank you @sabahusmani for sharing your work with us! The fourth graders are coming up with a lot of inventive ways to merge renewable energies. #solarandhydro #windvsfuelcells

After so much hard work, the fourth graders shared their passion and knowledge of renewable energy!

It's time to start thinking about getting electricity for all...-Pepe #forwardthinking twitter.com/SustDev/status…

It's incredible how it little it costs to power these houses! -Sofa twitter.com/PrecisionHomes…

Thanks to @JLMcAulay for teaching about fuel cells, though we know you like solar best... #solarforthewin #fuelcellfuture -Aleena and Sofia

This is our model of a wind turbine. It works! Wind energy is great because it is renewable and doesn't pollute. -Lucy and Rosie #cuethebreeze
