[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How big are MS core classes (math, science, English, social studies) in block schedule schools vs 45min class schools? Do teachers really get to know your kids? I felt like in ES my kid was basically a number and it’s just getting worse.[/quote] Class sizes really depends on the school. I’ve taught core courses in all of the following: A/B day Block scheduling 8 pds Rotating block scheduling 7 pds (the work of Satan) 45 min 7 pd 45 min 8 pd The biggest classes (42+) were in the 45 min 7 pd school. W feeder MS. The smallest were in the rotating block 7 pd (Curses upon it for 13 generations). Roughly 50% FARMS. [/quote]
