[quote=Anonymous]Experiential learning - everything is learned through a common theme, such as ants.  Many field trips and projects.  Lots of demonstrating.  Drafts and cooperative projects are big.

Sustainability - more than just environment, but also community.  Every child has coordinated gardening and cooking classes every week.  It is much, much bigger than just recycling.

Many many trips to parks and gardens and other places.  Field trips are very frequent.  There will be lots of gardens at the new space.  Composting is big.  Most expeditions are science or community related and thus science is integrated in everything. Even three year olds diagram animals.

It's is 90% Spanish through kindergarten and then 50%.  Science is integrated in the expeditions and is thus in English and Spanish.

It only goes through second grade so far, so I'm not sure how literature will be integrated,

Art, yoga, and soccer are constants, but there are other PE classes, including sometimes capoeira and swimming.

There are hundreds of posts about Mundo Verde.  It is hard to see how, unless you don't have google, you would need this all spoonfed.  Please concentrate on specific questions.[/quote]
