37 Conclusion This is only one way of building a long-term daily class schedule This is a SAMPLE schedules that can be used in the 50/50 DLP model for grades K-5 These sample schedules closely reflect the 70/30 and 50/50 DLP models in LAUSD, as well as El Paso Independent School District in Texas 37

38 Conclusion However, there are school districts that use alternative class schedules Difficult to generalize and pin point the most effective scheduling practices, since researchers are not able to isolate scheduling by itself as the cause of program success or failure Decision on class scheduling left to schools and local districts, provided that the schedule is aligned to the features of the program models as outlined in the District DL policy, as well as other District and State mandates 38

39 Break Out Sessions Self-Contained Team-Teaching

40 Break Out Sessions All teachers who will be teaching in a self-contained classroom will plan their schedule independently. All teachers who will be team teaching where there is a Target language teacher and an English teacher will work with Barbara 40
