Breaking the Mold (and the Polar Ice)

from Fund for Teachers - The Podcast · host Carrie Caton

Today's episode is a break from our normally scheduled podcast. Because today's guest is breaking the mold of how Fund for Teachers Fellows' engage their students from a fellowship. Today, we are learning from Sabina Sully, middle school teacher at Patterson Park Public Charter School in Baltimore, MD. Sabina used her $5,000 Fund for Teachers grant to collect data, photographs, and interviews across Iceland’s volcanic landscapes, renewable energy sites, and Arctic ecosystems to create a hands-on climate change and interconnections unit that engages middle school students as scientists and stewards. After watching her initial Instagram posts @pppcs_studyabroad, and being somewhat mystified (in the best way) at her energy and engagement with all she’s experiencing and learning, we knew she had to be our next guest. Listen in and you’ll see why…Fund for Teachers is grateful for the Maxwell/Hanrahan Foundation which funded this particular fellowship.Learn more about Fund for Teachers on our Facebook, Instagram and LinkedIn pages and apply for YOUR self-designed fellowship at fundforteachers.org.Music on podcast: Scott Harris: Clear Progress
