In your opinion, would block scheduling be better than traditional scheduling?
Examples. Block scheduling = Different classes on different days of the week. Monday-Math, Lit, Social stud etc. Tuesday-Lit, Gym, Science etc. Traditional = Same classes every day of the week. Monday-Math, Lit, Social stud etc. Tuesday-Math, Lit, Social stud etc. |

We have a normal schedule. A few things can change around, though, depending on what day it is (6-day cycle). Usually, it's because you don't need to take the class every day because it's not as important as your main classes. For example, I have health on days 1, 3, and 5, gym on days 2 and 6, and then study hall on day 4 (all during sixth period). Everything else is the same every day, though.
Personally, I've seen kinds of block schedules, and I hate it. The one I saw, for example, had math class for one semester and science for the other... And a whole bunch of other classes like that. It's not going to be fair for the juniors who need to take the SATs and maybe haven't learned some of its content yet because they don't have math class in that semester! Not to mention that you could easily forget what you've learned or be out-of-practice during the time you don't have the class... Even though the classes in a regular schedule may be shorter than what time a block schedule can provide, I think it's much better to have reinforcement of a main subject every day. |
