iLEAD Agua Dulce Getting Smart Featured

Thank you, Getting Smart, for spreading the word about our Play-Based Learning approach at iLEAD Agua Dulce!

“Another one of the many unique ventures at iLEAD is what schools such as iLEAD Agua Dulce are doing with Play-Based Learning school-wide. Students experience a rigorous, PBL curriculum with an emphasis on being encouraged to play that is all supported by the latest brain research. Students play both indoors and outdoors in order to experiment, innovate, create, collaborate and increase their emotional intelligence all whilst becoming part of a very active learning community. Whether it’s allowing students to climb a tree or raise chickens or rabbits, the iLEAD Agua Dulce school and community have adopted the mantra Free Range Children as a way to explain how their learners are encouraged to play in order to learn.”
