Basic Structure of Class Time

My classes are arranged in an A/B block scheduling format except on Friday. Every Friday I see all of my students in 45 minute segments. On Monday and Wednesday, I see group A and group B on Tuesday and Thursday for 90 – 100 minute blocks. Friday is utilized for whole group discussion and activities. On Monday through Thursday, the students are divided into groups of three to five. Each group rotates through four– twenty minute stations: whole–group, small–group, independent, and computer. The computer station is part of a prescribed reading program. This unit will be implemented during the whole group, small–group, and independent stations.
