[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I taught high school in VA on the block, and then I taught in two midwestern states on a 7-period day with all classes meeting each day for about an hour. I felt my Midwest students’ schedule was a better setup for their success. The consistency provided by having the class everyday was so beneficial, and helping students to build their skills bit by bit in the subject I taught was definitely easier than on the block. There are conveniences to the block, and for some subjects they are valid points (like science labs), but I believe ultimately the biggest selling point is that it’s more cost-effective for the school district.[/quote] +1 That's my school experience before college. I like the 7-peiod school day. [/quote]
