There are few hard and fast rules for how one should schedule a NAF Academy program. The concept is rooted in concerns about creating sufficient time to immerse students in the learning experience.
Block scheduling entails teacher teams, clusters of students, and time to plan and learn.
A modified block schedule is based on blocks of approximately 105 minutes. In this model, most students take three classes per day and alternate days and weeks. Regular Schedule Many schools successfully use the traditional schedule, in which each period lasts around fifty minutes and students are allowed either five or ten minutes to pass between classes. This pattern allows teachers to interact with students daily as opposed to two or three times per week. Although classes meet daily, there is less time for instruction and assessment.
