27、On the outside, 12-year-old Luna seems like a common kid. She loves to draw and read and her favorite subjects are science and social studies. It’s not until you get to know her that you learn Luna is anything but common.
Luna was born with heart disease and has undergone three open-heart operations. But she continues to pursue her interests in art and fashion. So when Luna was asked by the athletic shoe company Saucony to design a shoe for sale, it was quite a surprise. “I got to use my art and creativity for something new.” Luna says.
Luna is one of six patients from Boston Children’s Hospital (BCH) who have partnered with Saucony to design their own shoes for its Shoes with Soul campaign. “Rather than just make a donation, we wanted to give some of the kids an opportunity to share their stories and their talents with the world,” says Chris Mahoney, Saucony’s manager of design. “Specifically, we wanted to give some of the kids an opportunity to share their stories and their talents with the world.”
Money from the shoe sales will benefit the BCH Cardiac Fitness Program, which encourages kids to find their own exercise programs tailored according to their heart condition. “we invite patients with heart disease to an exercise program where they train not only their bodies, but their minds to become fully fit and feel strong,” says Dr. Naomi Gauthier, doctor of the Cardiac Fitness Program.
“It feels really good to help people,” says Lunar. “The advice I would give to someone like me is never give up. There are a lot of kids out there with your condition and you are not alone.”

28、After schools moved online a year ago because of COVID-19, Jonte Lee, a teacher in Washington, DC. was determined to make his chemistry labs interactive and accessible. He figured the way to do so was to connect to the students on social platforms.
As a result, Lee has been livestreaming (网络直播) his lessons on Instagram and Facebook, inspiring students to follow along at home. Lee’s principal suggested he livestream a lab last April. “Our thought behind it was students know how to use Instagram and Facebook,” Lee said,
Realizing that most of his students would not have access to lab equipment when they had online lessons, Lee largely uses items that can be found in most kitchens. “And if there’s something a student doesn’t have, I don’t mind shipping it to the student,” he said.
Since beginning his lessons, Lee has heard from viewers across the country about how his classes have improved their experience of attending online school. One woman told Lee she had been worried about supervising her grandchildren’s classes at home. “She was like, ‘I know nothing about science, what’s going to happen?’ and then she came across my page,” said Lee. “Stories like that really touch my heart.”
Lee also has bought and delivered backpacks, school supplies, and even Amazon Fire tablets to each of his students. Lee poured his summer school teaching salary into the endeavor, calling is an “incredible experience”. Lee’s favorite lesson described how to make ice cream in three different ways, because of how engaged his students were even after the livestream ended.
Lee plans to continue posting videos even after students go back to school in person. “As a public school teacher, I have no intention to be famous or make money. I simply want to give back to all the taxpayers that fund my salary,” said Lee. “This allowed me to be a community teacher, and not a teacher that is bound by the four walls in my classroom.”
