Grading: Pass/Fail ***As per the College of Charleston Graduate Catalog a pass/fail course carries zero (0)
quality points and cannot be converted to a letter grade. It does earn 3 hours of graduate credit for
teaching-certificate renewal.
Description: This institute relates to the College of Charleston’s conceptual framework and theme of
connecting teaching and learning by providing hands-on experiences for the teacher/participant
through working/interacting with heritage-site historians. Knowledge of how Colonial-era South
Carolina shaped our history will be the focus of an SCETV-model lesson plan to be developed by
each participant. Learning will be guided through these units and must correlate with South
Carolina standards. Participants in this course will integrate guided lessons in colonial history
through cross-curricular instruction in social studies, science, math, and language arts as well as
the expressive arts: drama, music, painting, sculpture, pottery, and dance, when possible.
Goals: The course goals, objectives, and activities have been designed to correspond with both the
College of Charleston’s Teaching and Learning Standards and the National Educational
Technology Standards and Performance Indicators for Teachers.

June 15, 2016 - 12:15PM Colonial Rice Culture at Middleton Place
Location:
Middleton Place

Charleston, SC 29414
Contact:
Greg Smith - (843) 556-6020 or [email protected]
Jeff Neale – (843) 556-6020 or [email protected]
Program Focus:
Beginning in the 18th Century, rice not only became the Low Country’s economic staple, but it
transformed both the region’s landscape and cultural fabric. Such forces were driven by the early
planter’s ambition and the knowledge, skill, and labor of enslaved Africans and African
Americans.
Program Description:
The program will focus on 18th Century South Carolina’s main agricultural staple – Carolina
Gold Rice – and the knowledge, skill, and labor provided by enslaved workers to produce what
was called “The Rice Kingdom.” Participants will be viewing an exhibit on slavery in a former
Freedman’s House; visit the site’s demonstration rice field; participate in hands-on activities
such as fanning and pounding rice; and take
a tour of the site’s House Museum. During
their stay, visitors will also be able to view
the Gardens and the Plantation Stableyards.

June 16, 2016 - 9:00AM Ft. Moultrie: Gateway to Charleston Harbor
Location:
Fort Moultrie
1214 Middle Street
Sullivan's Island, SC 29482
Contact:
Barb Brundage, [email protected], 843-714-4268
Paula Ogden, [email protected] or 843-714-4268
Program Focus:
Fort Moultrie stood as defender of Charleston harbor for 171 years from 1776 to 1947. The
palmetto log and sand fort was the site of one of the first American victories of the Revolutionary
War. Forty-percent of Africans imported into the United
States entered through the port of Charleston and some first
set foot on American soil on Sullivan's Island.
Program Description:
The program will include about a one-mile walking tour of
the hypothesized site of the first fort on Sullivan’s Island as
well as sites associated with the international slave trade.
On this walking tour we will examine the role of Fort
Moultrie in the Battle of Sullivan’s Island. Very little of what
we will talk about on this tour has been preserved. We will
discuss the absence of material culture of both the first
palmetto fort and the structures associated with the slave
trade. What can the absence of historical preservation tell us about the history of each site?
Finally, we will see two different memorials commemorating Sullivan’s Island’s role in the slave
trade and contrast how they attempt to capture the emotional and historical impact of the
largest forced migration in world history.
Parking:
Parking is available in the lot behind the Fort Moultrie Visitor Center
(See map on next page)
Where we’ll meet:
We will meet in the park visitor center.

A Look at Equality and the US Constitution from a Signer’s Lowcountry Plantation
Location:
Charles Pinckney National Historic Site
1254 Long Point Rd
Mt Pleasant, SC 29464
Contact:
Michelle Haas, [email protected], 843.881.5516
Kelsey Taormina, [email protected], 843.881.5516
Program Focus:
Revolutionary America put forth lofty ideals of liberty and equality that further influenced the
development of the nation. In the context of the US Constitution, and the influence of men like
Charles Pinckney, a signer of the US Constitution, this program explores the dichotomy of the
fight for liberty and equality with the reality of denying it to much of the population.
Program Description:
Participants will be guided through stations while taking on the role of 18th century reporters
covering George Washington’s breakfast at Charles Pinckney’s Snee Farm. Do the reporters find
the story they expect to find, or is there more to it?
Parking:
Use the main lot near the entrance off Long Point Rd. If
necessary, you may be directed to additional parking in
the field beyond the lot. Signs will be posted to direct
workshop participants

June 16, 2016 - 12:30PM Becoming the Holy City: Religion in Colonial Charleston
Location:
Mt. Pleasant Presbyterian
302 Hibben Street, Mt Pleasant, SC 29464
Contact: Rennie All, [email protected], 843-345-7930
Site Overview:
Planters, some of whom had arrived from New
England in 1696, started our mother church, best
known today as Old Wappetaw (site can be found on
Fifteen Mile Landing Road in Awendaw, just north
of our current location). That church called its first
minister, a Congregationalist, in 1699, but
throughout its long history, many of the ministers
were Presbyterian. After the American Revolution, the Old Wappetaw congregation was
chartered by the state legislature and its Sanctuary, which had been burned by the British when
they evacuated the area in 1782, was soon rebuilt.
Since many of Old Wappetaw’s members were acquiring summer cottages in or near the Village
of Mount Pleasant, worship services were conducted in the
village from time to time to accommodate them. The present
Presbyterian Sanctuary was erected in 1854 - known as the
“Presbyterian Church.”
Program Description:
Special guest professor Dr. Tom Horton will discuss intrigues of
Colonial Charleston with emphasis on religion in 18th century
South Carolina.
Parking:
Lot located near the intersection of Whilden St. & Live Oak Dr.
