The Timetable

Very important topic!

We have to think about everything that has to fit into the timetable!
Antoine and I started to set a first model up considering chronobiology, pedagogy, psychology and our experiences. It's gonna change according to the teaching needs and our group-natural-rythm but here's the idea:

Breakfast "served" between 8:30 and 9:15 am
Courses would start at 9:30 with soft-mental-needing-classes, modules (see below) and manual/creative/softly-sportive workshops.
Lunch around 12:30 with raw food so we don't have to cook anything we just picnic Also we enjoy all of the nutriments of the food, and can try to follow our belly instinct!
A little break then, 30mn or so... then music session (lessons, rehearsals, jams...) from 2:00pm till 3:00.
Then an hard-core-mental-needing-class for 45mn to 1h. Then an hard-core-physical-needing-activity for another 45mn-1h.
It's 5:00 we can have a fruit and go to town to give a little show to fill-up the gasoil, recycle, have some free time if we want to busk for ourselves, shop, go on internet, visit the place, meet other people...
There will be always 5 people "staying home", different ones everytime, to keep an eye on the stuff, have some times for themselves and cook for when the other 2/3 of the group are coming back, around 8:00 (depending on the country's rythm).
During diner we'll open the "group-box" where will be the ideas, problems, etc we anonymously wrote down and will discuss it together.
After everyone is free to do whatever, we can have lectures in the common yourte to fall asleep, music in a corner of the forest, another common yourte with silence and darkness for those who need...

That's for the daily routine. Weekly now:
We'll have modules: these are classes we'll have for ~45mn everyday for a whole week. We can have 2 of them within a week. It gives us the possibility to focus on one specific subject, in case we need to improve a skill or to realize something, or to give a whole set of time to special guests in the caravan.

During the week-ends we'll go to markets to recycle, busk, sell stuff eventually, and give free workshops to the autochthons! We will also drive. Yes, it's nomadic so we should also plan some driving!

Finally the month-routine:
We'll have 3 weeks like this and then a "project-realization-week": a week where we will all focus on a special project.For example the first one of this projects can be the building of the yourtes! Another one could be to create a theater play that could be universaly understood...we'll decide all together!


What do you think?

I really like the idea of different "layers" of organization so there's always stuff to do.

About the schedule seems fine to me, I guess we will adapt it according on how it's going on the field.

Antoine's idea! I think it's really "unroutining" in a good rythm if I may say! Perfect kind of thing for a school, even more such one!
And yes we will surely have to adapt it to the different kind of adventures we find on the way!
