[quote=Anonymous]We also have 5 teachers for 5th. Here is how it works in our school: They divide the academic day into three periods (I think of 90 minutes each). Kids rotate among them, going to one period of: * ELA * Math * Social studies/science/enrichment (1/2 of period is social studies or science, the other 1/2 enrichment. Enrichment is leveled by reading group and is either Jr Great Books or William & Mary. Our school does not offer ELC yet.) Teachers each teach three periods. * One teacher teaches 3 periods of ELA * One teacher teaches 3 periods of math * One teacher teaches 3 periods of social studies/science/enrichment * one teacher teaches 2 periods of ELA and 1 period of social studies/science/enrichment * one teacher teaches 2 periods of math and 1 period of social studies/science/enrichment Unsurprisingly, the most junior teachers are teaching 2 types of classes, and the most senior just 1.
