ELEM - key issues to present to faculty about why flex scheduling

[Melinda Miller-Widrick <miller-w@ALDUS.NORTHNET.ORG>]

Hi folks - I am heading towards flexible scheduling with my K-4 classes
and I need to write up a short but informative paragraph/proposal that
explains to our teachers why this is such a good idea. By a good idea, I
mean what the benefits are to them, as they will be losing one of their
planning periods as such. I know why it is better for kids and teaching
information skills but need some ammo for the things it will do for the
teachers. Any ideas you used or know of would be greatly appreciated.
TIA.
Melinda
