One way to take learning out of the box is to take kids out of the classroom—the philosophy behind the growing global forest-kindergarten movement. At Cedarsong, on Washington’s Vashon Island, the first total-immersion nature preschool in the U.S., kids ages two to six learn through hands-on exploration in all seasons and weather (cedarsongnatureschool
.org). The Waldorf School of Saratoga Springs’ forest kindergarten, in New York, is built on the nearly 100-year-old Waldorf philosophy that education should address children’s emotional, physical, and creative development, not just their intellect. For the littlest learners, this means warm, natural spaces and a break from the wired world—easy to do when your classroom is Saratoga Spa State Park (waldorfsaratoga.org). In Massachusetts, the Natick Community Organic Farm’s Forest Gnomes classroom is a clearing in the woods with an outdoor fire pit and a craft house for frosty winter days (natickfarm.org). And farm schools like the Waldorf-inspired Good Earth Farm School in Austin, Texas, trade the wilds for a WORKING SPREAD (goodearthfarmschool.com).

Note from asker:
Hello Nick, you agreed with the previous suggestion, yet you proposed another term. The whole text is all about 'deschooling' or also getting the kids outdoors to learn with nature. So my conclusion is that the first answer would be kind of redundant... don't you think? Thank you! |

Pelo que li do excerto, diria assim.
1. Horta escolar: Educação ambiental
http://www.seaembu.org/docs/livro_horta_escolar_online.pdf
"A escola Into the Woods oferece às crianças de 2 anos e meio a 5 uma experiência única em educação. Por lá, faça chuva ou faça sol, não há paredes ou salas de aula. Tudo é aprendido ao ar livre."

: Aulas/atividades, sim. Sala de aula, não. Se é ao ar livre, não é uma sala de aula.

Discussion
No matter how hard I try, I don't see where the term "redundant" could possibly apply here. Anyway, with four "agrees", you can be a bit more confident on that suggestion.
