I taught a "year 4" class in literacy where there were only 4 students out of 20 that were actually in year four. The rest were in years 2-5. This kind of swap happens all the time, with student being in one class for literacy, another for numeracy and a third, their year group for all other subjects. It would be very difficult to implement in Regina, with our current model of prep time, but in many schools here, all teachers get their prep in the PM, with many school bringing in outside agencies to cover this time.Heatherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08628542178920504883noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1594013070158399415.post-14331211725171887822009-02-22T10:29:00.000-06:002009-02-22T10:29:00.000-06:00Hi JoanaThis is Prakash Deo from Bhopal,India.

Still not sure whether it's a useful way to spend limited time. I read your post, and I agree...exciting times! I visited Noble High School in Maine a few years ago. They have a very interesting interdisciplinary program. Also the Maine learning Technology Institute has a website and some interesting resources. Maine had the first state-wide laptop initiative and the spawned some very cool approaches to teaching, mostly at the middle school level.<BR/>Cheers.BrokenClassroomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04374842471282828103noreply@blogger.com
