Teacher planning time is handled through 30 minutes classes of library, PE, and music.
Students go twice a week to PE and Music and once a week to library.
Last year I covered two elementary school with this same planning time. This past year I did change the time for intermediate classes and it seems to work real well. 5th graders came down for a 30 min. AND I DO NOT feel I can charge for a lost book if a student has been on the main server. So, the teacher is present for management and assistance in locating reading materials, also she recognizes appropriate choices either because of classroom assignments or reading ability.
