[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Here is the problem - it all works on paper - but it does not work with actual delivery.

IMO - you should do a program for middle school similar to Colorado College where students take one class at a time for 3 weeks.   Imagine if you modified this a little.   
Middle school proposal:
Group 1 took math and science for 4 week.   
Group 2 took ELA and the History / Geography course
All take foreign language and their special
Week between the 4 week sessions is a Intensive week of Foreign Language and the special.
Start the next marking period the same model.
The 4 weeks allows for the teachers to go deep into content, enable the students to reduce some of the switching.[/quote]

This seems smart. My kid has been taking Deal’s summer math acceleration class this month, which is three hours a day over four weeks, and it’s been really effective. Intensive focus on one or two subjects for shorter periods makes a lot of sense in a remote environment.[/quote]
