years
later,
experiential,
hands-on
learning
is
alive
and
well
at
Latin
and
has
evolved
into
some
of
our
most
renowned
curriculum
such
as
Nazi
Mind,
Project
Week
and
Singapore
Math.
Whether
you
attended
Latin
in
the
'40s
or
the
'00s,
chances
are
you
have
a
fond
memory
of
a
favorite
experiment,
field
trip
or
class
project.
Summer
homework
for
1918
was
extremely
hands-on
and
challenged
students
to
collect
and
feed
caterpillars
and
watch
them
change
to
butterflies,
photograph
birds
from
an
umbrella
screen
and
tame
a
wild
animal!

Nothing
is
more
experiential
than
allowing

to

your
face;
so

lessons
learned
here!
