Teachers set up and teach in their own classrooms and students rotate through 6 or 7 different classes during the school day, depending on individual lunch schedules and classroom time allocations before and after lunch. Students and their families can also participate during the evening fair, which is scheduled at most schools.
Students practice what they learn by driving a battery-powered vehicle and walking in traffic.
