S4 Olympic Bonus

Meet Cara Furtwengler, Physical Education teacher at Pheasant Point Elementary. Hear how she’s brought the Winter Games to her O’Fallon, Mo, elementary school to connect students with the possibilities. Her Olympic games cross curriculum, bringing in science, math, history, leadership and more. “Behind every athlete is an engineer, someone in sports medicine. There’s a nutritionist,” Furtwengler says. “There are all of these different amazing careers that, without them, these athletes couldn’t be who they are.” Tune in wherever you get you podcasts, on YouTube at FORTiTUDEonair or at FORTiTUDEonair.com Visit the show notes there for Cara's favorite resources.
