What are your child's teachers or schools doing right now that you just LOVE. I'll bite. DS1 is in 5th grade. Three days a week they run first thing in the morning. They start the year with just two laps around the blacktop but gradually increase the length until at the end of school they're running like 30. I like this for so many reasons. I like it because it is quality physical exercise that, mixed with twice a week PE, means DS gets physical activity every day. I like it because it helps get his morning energy out. I like that it builds. My little kids have a lot of energy but I feel like the process of sitting for class every day somehow they lose the ability to really run like that.
I like that DS2 is doing Daily Five in his classroom. That means that the teacher is working individually with DS every single day and he's hitting five different strategies for literacy every single day in addition to centers and more traditional group instruction.
