Our district is now on the 80 minute A/B block schedule plan. I teach reading to middle school students. I am interested in knowing some ideas for how to plan my periods. For example: 15 minute warm up, 20 minute vocabulary instruction, 20 minute comprehension and skills lessons. Does anyone have a schedule for their classroom that works?
mrs.h If I had 80 min (oh how Iwish!) My day would look like this somewhat:

10 min warm up 20-25 min independent reading 25 min reading strategies work 25 min writing work

OR, some days I would make either the reading or the writing longer. for example, if we were into the unit and the essay was due soon, we'd focus on writing.
