 * The teachers were not able to choose this schedule, it was assigned to all of second grade for them to follow. At first the teachers were a little upset that they had no break during the morning and were afraid that the students would lose focus by the time reading and word work started. Although as time progressed we realized that it actually worked well because the students' sharpest focus was in the morning during math and reading time, and in the afternoon when we did writing it gave them a good cool down after recess before they left for block. If the teacher ever noticed that the students were starting to lose focus during the morning she would stop and do a brain break and then bring the students back in to work on the lesson. This lesson seemed to work really well and led to easy afternoons for the children.**=====

 * Again, this schedule was not chosen by the teachers, but was instead given to them by the school for all of first grade to follow. This schedule is a little bit harder to follow because there is a long break in the middle of the day where the students go to recess, lunch and then block. Sometimes it is hard to bring the students back to focus on math and inquiry at the end of the day when they all make it clear that they are ready to go home by that point. The schedule is built this way though because of the rotations that they do with block and with the playground that Kindergarten through Second grade share.**=====
