[MOSAIC] 6th Grade Reading

[write at att.net]

Angie's question makes me think about a (sort of) opposite situation.  I was hoping to get a reading class next year, but instead I'm getting a math/art/reading class for middle school students.

Every two weeks 1/3rd of the students will be in either math, art, or reading.  Every two weeks a group of students moves to the other subject.  Have any of you had such a class at your school?  How did it work?
