Rationale: The teacher's schedule works well because it has a good balance between time periods of resource and inclusion classes. She is able to have a fairly equal amount of time in both resource and inclusion classes which allows for her to better aid students in both class settings. The subjects that are being taught are also more closely grouped together to allow the teacher, for example, to go from teaching resource reading to then teaching with the inclusion reading class. The schedule is beneficial because, for the most part, it provides her with a few minutes in between class sections to allow her to have time to get from one class to another without having to dismiss her resource students early or show up late to the next class. The time also gives her a couple of minutes to change her mindset as she goes from teaching one subject to teaching a different subject. The teacher has her planning and lunch time spaced throughout the day which allows her to have a break to prepare for other students as well as to complete various SPED tasks that she has due to being the lead SPED teacher at the school. All in all, the schedule works well and is implemented well by the teacher.
