The 90-Minute Instructional Model
The research is clear: We must invest sufficient time for instruction
for students who are at risk of failure. Studies have conclusively
shown that when schools implement and follow the 90-Minute Instructional
Model, significant gains can be expected after one to two years of
program participation.
There is flexibility in how the 90-Minute Instruction Model can be
applied. Scholastic will work with you to devise a model that assures
best results. Some alternative schedules include:
- Consecutive 45- or 50-minute class periods
- Non-consecutive 45- or 50-minute class periods
- 45- or 50-minute class periods, plus computer lab for after school
- After school and in summer school
