Schools are already doing what has long been a dream of mine: holding class outside! Click here for a great article about an outdoor kindergarten class in Victoria. Since moving here I feel a lot less constrained to keeping students inside, which means I am able to teach in a way that is closer to my own beliefs about learning: that learning happens deepest when in direct connection with experience.
This philosophical belief is something I hope to pursue in my master's. I'm going to apply to a couple of programs in B.C. and then take it from there. The more I think about it, the more I think that now is the time! I'll keep you posted.
