Math Block
Math Block
You may have heard from your student that we had our first Math Block rotation on Friday. Math Block is an embedded support time that we use to provide targeted support in Math for our students. Math Block occurs everyday except for Thursday and each cycle is 5 weeks long. The Math Block is scheduled after 3rd period, but the class itself rotates, so that students will have an opportunity to be with each of their scheduled teachers for a Math Block rotation. We also have some students being pulled into other Math Blocks where the teacher is targeting a specific math skill. The rotation seems confusing at first, but the students get the hang of it quickly and we have staff members out during passing period, helping to remind them where they go as well as announcements over the intercom and on our school news. The current Math Block class is your child’s 1st period teacher. This Math Block will run until September 20th.
The schedule is as follows:
1st period
2nd period
3rd period
Math Block (with 1st period teacher)
1st lunch/4th period
4th period/2nd lunch
5th period
6th period
