So sorry! I can't believe I made a typo in my e-mail address. Subj: ELEM TARGET: Rotating schedule, pros and cons The time has come... We will meet next month to discuss our current 6-day schedule in preparation for next year. I would appreciate hearing from anyone who is involved in a rotating schedule, whether 4 days or 6. How long has this been going on? Are the "specials" included? If any of them are done by itinerants, how do they feel about it? Is your library a Special? What do the classroom teachers have to say about things like PE in the primary grades, where they no longer have a set "gym day?" Has your school ended up with two schedules? One of our grade 6-8 teachers (there are 3 unless you include me, and they often don't :-( )spoke about shifting class times so their teaching hours varied, i.e. not having math first period Mon.-Fri. (They are departmental) I know we've talked about planning time--does that fit in anywhere here? Does anyone have a creative solution that made everyone, or almost everyone, happy? Thanks for whatever you have to offer. I hope I've asked the right questions. In the end, tell me anything. {8-) Kathy Hintz Hintz@vaxa.sunycgcc.edu Librarian, Etc (corrected address) St. Patrick's School Catskill, NY
