Having an extra day in bewtween classes to do homework is awesome! And like you said, it really gives students time to let the information sink in. <BR/>And G-period is a great way to end the day because it usually flies by; it seems so short compared to the 90 minute blocks earlier in the day. SSR doesn't hurt either, and if you're involved in the freshmen advisory program, G-period <I> really </I> flies by! <BR/>Never thought about it, but I realize that I'm very thankful we switched to this schedule 2 years ago :)NHS Student Councilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00412285824820379524noreply@blogger.com
