[quote=Anonymous]Here’s an article that lays out the pros and cons of both block and traditional schedules. https://education.seattlepi.com/block-vs-traditional-scheduling-student-perspective-1577.html I’ve taught both schedules for a number of years in MCPS. I find that a 90 min block lends itself to quite a bit of wasted time. Students need both brain breaks and the ability to move their bodies. I find block preferable only when there is a special need such as working on a project, having a guest speaker, or taking an extended assessment. [/quote]
