Workshop of Belgrade MS

The workshop where students demonstrate volunteerism.

In my country we have other forms of volunteerism where students volunteer to clean hospitals, market places, peer education, gutters and so on. The difference here has to do with soliciting funds to enable these wheelchair to be produced for needy in society and the joy that comes with it.
In my opinion, the technical instructor is a great teacher and should be honour. His creativity and dedication to the service of humanity makes this project a success.
Keep on the fire!

DEMONSTRATION AT ROCWHEELS

This is the workshop where the students assemble the wheelchairs with great commitment.

Please help

Hello everybody!
 I was reading the previous post on how to implement the blogging and other techniques to my classroom and I was stuck because I could not figure out how to use them in my own classes because my school does not have an IT classroom, so my students do not have access to computers and most of my students do not een know how to use a computer.  So I decided to ask the help of the experiences and wonderful teachers I have with me in the TEA program! Please guys would you help me with suggestions on this problem?

TOGETHER FOR BETTER!

We are so excited to learn how to help others. Volunteering is super!

Diana's post

The food bazar was a huge success! (so I've heard). This image belongs to Asmaa because I was unable to attend due to health issues. In this picture, the brazilian guests were offering their traditional dishes with a smile. It was a great opportunity to enjoy not only food but get to know traditions and even make new friends. My roommate Nicoleta, from Rumania, told me in detail what a huge success it had been. The organization and quality of the food was outstanding and everybody had fun. Volunteering for this type of activities is a great opportunity to learn not only about other cultures but about ourselves and self-reflect about what I have to offer to my community and my country. I am disappointed I missed it, I look forward to enjoying further activities like the food bazar.

First Blog Post

Hi Everyone,

Welcome to the Montana TEA blog focused on service learning.  Let's start with an easy question so you can learn how to make comments on a blog post.  You will be amazed at how much you have learned by the end of your six weeks.

What event or events have made you smile since you arrived in the United States for TEA?
