Sample Kindergarten Schedules

I googled "kindergarten daily schedule".  Here is a summary of the amount of free play time in the first ten full day schedule results.  Note that while all the schedules had some recess time, the majority of the results have no in class free play time.  Full schedules are shown below.

Opportunity FYI for kids

Hi Everyone,

I hope you can help me spread the word to any 13-17 year olds that you know (and their parents)... The MEERWALD is scheduled to leave on two awesome summer camps - July 20-24th from Liberty State Park to Beach Haven and July 27-31 from Beach Haven to Cape May. Each is a Monday through Friday with a special sail for the parents of the campers on Friday afternoon.

There are a bunch of spaces left and we are offering a $150 'Recession Discount' to anyone who books between now and the start of camp. Regularly $750, now $600 for 5 days and 4 nights of potentially life-changing experiences -- character building, challenging, educational and FUN!

Inquiry-Based Projects

Model for Creation of Open-Ended, Inquiry-Based Projects

Brielle Stark, July 2009


I have been taking part in an inquiry-based program with K-12 teachers, exploring how the brain works, how emergence works and how to apply this knowledge in everyday life, as well as in the classroom.  We like to call this concept open-ended transactional inquiry.
