Whether its flipping the first two class aswell as the last two, or completely doing a full rotation from, ABCD to DABC to CDAB to BCDA.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7724659491742518205.post-63673040638323288252014-01-14T09:14:14.464-08:002014-01-14T09:14:14.464-08:00I agree with you riley having the same 2 classes e...I agree with you riley having the same 2 classes every morning can be pretty boring, my first period class is english which i believe to be an important class but some days i am not fully awake and dont do my best work i think if it rotated so it wasnt first every day i could be more involved.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7724659491742518205.post-20169383597950069612013-11-20T10:37:34.558-08:002013-11-20T10:37:34.558-08:00I think that morning classes should also rotate. ...I think that morning classes should also rotate. My reasoning is that I feel students are not fully awake in 1st period. I have found that 1st period classes are often quiet and it is hard to get students to engage in discussion and other activities. By rotating we can ensure that we eliminate the 1st period class where it is hard to engage students everyday. Maybe a 2 day rotation so it is ABCD on day one and BADC on day 2. Makes it easy on CO-OP and sports.Mr.Brysonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13004099081097403616noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7724659491742518205.post-37299260458947105662013-11-20T03:48:34.783-08:002013-11-20T03:48:34.783-08:00I believe that Ms Le is correct - it was changed t...I believe that Ms Le is correct - it was changed to keep morning classes in the morning and afternoon classes in the afternoon for specialty programs like co-op, Teddy Bear Playschool and the foods classes. There wouldn't be lunch 2 days out of 4 if the morning cooking classes were in the afternoon!<br />I think it must be a difficult decision trying to weigh the needs of special programs with the benefits of a fuller rotation for the general population.L.Ungerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06649354761583388258noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7724659491742518205.post-3904011362359975182013-11-19T06:43:30.139-08:002013-11-19T06:43:30.139-08:00I agree with you, Riley.

I don't know when it changed. <br /><br />I agree with your point about students in athletics always missing the same classes. I also think it would benefit students in the applied and workplace streams to have their "core" subjects in the morning once in a while. <br /><br />I think the reason we have a two day schedule is because of co-op. I think it makes it easier for those students to arrange their work placements. There are also other programs, such as Teddy Bear Playschool, that require a stable timetable.Sarah Lehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12888625789568300137noreply@blogger.com
