Semana ambiental

Thank goodness for relaxing weekends at the beach so crazy weeks don't seem SO crazy. The past week was Outdoor Education Week, so the 1st-3rd grades got to go on a field trip and build a garden at school, among other activities. It was a good break from the norm, and my kids really enjoyed it. Here's a picture of us on the way to Rancho Baiguate, of Jorge with a worm after learning about fertilizer, and of some of the kids working hard tilling the ground for the garden. The experiential part of our school was key to the week; the kids were exhausted and dirty after each day which is always a good sign of hands-on learning :).
