[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What I don't get is why some schools put regular classes in trailers yet leave specials in the building. Why not put the specials in the trailers so the regular classrooms (where the kids spend most of their time) are in the building? (I get that you may run out of specials to put in the trailers and need them for regular classes but shouldn't specials go there first?)[/quote] Specials are PE, Art and Music. So are you proposing that students set up classrooms in the gym and kids have PE in the trailer? As for art, access to water is key. If there's no sink, it's not going to happen. I have worked in a school that put the art teacher on a cart, and she came into the classroom. The art room was turned into a gen ed classroom. As for music, that is certainly an option and is one that I have seen. In the end, though, remember that you're not going to get that much space back.[/quote]
