[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Block schedules always resulted in wasted time and are terrible for music and language learning [/quote]\ I am no fan of block scheduling but what makes it bad for music? Orchestras and bands outside of school typically rehearse for more than 90 minutes at a time. When you factor in taking an instrument out and putting it away, 45 min seems like not enough time. I don't think that should be driving the block scheduling decision though! Whether or not kids have orchestra or band for 45 or 90 minutes, they still need to be practicing outside of school so that does not change.[/quote]
