[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is this for middle and high school? Is this only for DL? I think we need more info OP. A thousand years ago, I had 7 blocks in middle school and 4 in high school. The 4 block was much easier to manage and seemed like a better system from my student perspective.[/quote] Yes. The current plan for secondary DL has 4 blocks a day. It is just not done well in MCPS which is why most schools did hybrid-block or modified block before. Those schools usually had 7 periods three days a week and block just two. Block sounds like it worked for you, but it doesn’t work well for most 11-15 year olds.[/quote] DC attended TPMS, which is on a block schedule. Block is very good in MS, IME. Fewer transitions, more time to work in class, easier to manage homework. [/quote]
