Dr. Mary Ann Harstshorn, Campus Director is proud to showcase some of her TF's accomplishments last spring and over the summer.
Hannah Chapman and Erik Hunt spent 3 ½ weeks in New Zealand with several other students and professors while working with students in exercise science. Hannah and Erik taught lessons at a primary and secondary school in Auckland. While in the Primary school, they taught a dance routine where the learning object was to identify body parts. At the Secondary level, they combined the concept of adding money with various aerobic exercises in a cross curriculum lesson. Erik, excelled in this mode of instruction and just received word that he has been selected to present at a physical education conference at the Benton Convention Center in Winston-Salem, NC in November! (Pictured in Slide 1 below)
Emily and Aly Lain worked with the “Rivers of Life Mission” in Paducah, KY where they helped repair roofing and cabins for three families and fifteen homeless men. (Slide 2) Aly also spent two weeks in Ecuador repairing buildings and planting trees for a Methodist ministry there. (Slide 3)
Before leaving for the summer, Teaching Fellows raised $600 for the Morogoro School in Tanzania. Dr. Ndunda shared this picture of the many children who will be able to eat this school year because of that donation. (Slide 4)
Kathryn Templeton was featured in College Today, a CofC magazine (http://today.cofc.edu/2016/09/08/k4kids-school-supplies/). Kathryn, a junior Fellow, started her own nonprofit called K4Kids, Kids Helping Kids, which collects reusable books and supplies and redistributes them to students and teachers in need. “Pass it. Don’t trash it,” is their new slogan.
