Tape went to the village to continue teaching the participants how to build fuel efficient stoves. When she arrived she found the members who had already organized the materials for building the stove in place.
Together they began stamping the dirt and after, Tape requested only a small group of people to enter the kitchen and watch while she built the stove which will help create space and promote social distance between themselves.
The members kept on watching in turns as Tape built the stove while explaining to them each step because most of them had not yet mastered certain steps like taking measurements of the banana stems and in between the saucepans.
Later after completing the stove building, Tape requested them to always try and build stoves on their own because practice makes perfect in the future. The participants agreed to the suggested idea and thanked tape for the lessons and the meeting came to an end.
