Periods

We now only have 4 periods whatif we could have a 8 pd day wo/ extra hw and no more abc days every yhing would be in the same day.

Periods

That would be cool. But how long would each class be?

Class Periods

But if we had 8 periods, we would have less time in each class, which would leave very little time for assesments. In addition, we would have to wear tennis shoes every day for P.E., wash our uniforms every night and have them ready for school, AND complete a LOT of homework. Not my idea of fun.

Periods

Moya Moya Moya If you have shorter class periods than you dont spend as much time sweating so you only have to wash it every 2 days or somthing.

Periods

[i]Still,[/i]you'd have to do gym every day,bring whatever instrument you play every day, etc. We would be totally and utterly exhausted! Not to mention even more sick of those nasty gym uniforms...

Periods

su u r so a prinsess

Periods

I agree with Moya about the whole P.E. thing. *shudders at thought of [i]everyday[/i] P.E.*

Periods

What if you still have Pe every 2 days???

Periods

That would be ok...

Periods

Ewwwwwwwwwwww............every three days is plenty, Miss Athletic!!! Besides, wouldn't that defeat the purpose of the 8-period schedule?

Periods

Well, an 8 period day would roughly have 45 minute periods:

1 Math
2-3 Double Language Arts
4 Social Studies
5 Science
6 Elective 1
7 Elective 2
8 Elective 3

Another option, is to have 4 periods, but only A-B days:

A DAY
1 Language Arts
2 Math
3 Social Studies
4 Elective 1

B DAY
1 Language Arts
2 Science
3 History(or something)/Elective2
4 Elective 3

Either way, you essentially have more language arts than anything else.

Periods

What if you take a foreign language? Would you replace a Language Arts class with foreign language? :oops:

Periods

Oh! :shock:

Probably, you're right. Or, they might take out the elective or sumthing. I dunno, I'm not them, but those arrangements make sense, at least to me.

Periods

Take out an elective? Like P.E.?

Periods

I think it's rediculese to have a four period day your cramped up in an 18 by 20 foot room for 86 minutes it seems the only reason I come to school anymore is beacuse of my love for SGA.

Periods

toats i agree w/ u and it makes no sence @all!!!

kool

:) that would be the best cuz we would not have to sit there for like 86 min :)

Periods

I totally agree. It can get boring just sitting in a chair for 86 minutes. 8)

Periods

Periods

*like a smack in the face*
I never thought of P.E. everyday... although it would be healthier

Periods
