here.
E-Block is to be used to provide additional time during the school day for students to seek support and/or enrichment. The 35 minute E-Block during the middle of the day will allow:
-
students to be engaged in their high school experience including academic co-curricular and extra-curricular activities
-
students who need extra help to receive it without sacrificing important responsibilities after school
-
students who must reclaim credit or recover a course competency the time to do so with guidance from their classroom teachers
-
students who are freshmen to participate in Mentoring and Advisory Time (MAT) beginning 2014
-
students identified in special education regular access to their case managers
-
all active and monitored ELL status students regular access to their case mangers
-
teachers to pre-schedule their own students for remedial sessions (these teacher scheduled sessions will not be overridden by students)
A team of two E-Block teachers will support and guide the planning and scheduling of twenty-five students during the course of the week. Eventually students will manage the scheduling of this time on their own and seek advice as needed. |
All teachers will be encouraged to offer both
enrichment opportunities– offerings for the purpose of supplementing or enhancing student performance in an academic subject or an extra-curricular activity, and
workshops – offerings designed to engage students beyond the typical course content, such as career seminars, guest speakers, or “how to do something” activities.
