Best Practices in Kindergarten; Service Learning

In 2002, Education Ministers from the countries of Serbia, Russia, Kosovo, and Ukraine came to Philadelphia to learn about effective Project Based Service Learning. They were here specifically to see the Alliance to Save Energy's, Green Schools program in action. Green Schools is an international, student centered program where students devise and implement energy conservation strategies in their school. As the Co-Director of the Green Schools, Philly programs, we had a kindergarten project in a Philadelphia public school. Among other aspects of the project, the students were part of the "Energy Patrol". These European educators saw hands on teaching and learning at its finest and went back to their respective countries with a deep understanding of Best Practices in action.
