Block schedules offer the promise of more time, but without intentional design, that time doesn’t always translate into deeper learning. In this episode, I unpack common missteps like stacking and stretching traditional lessons and why they often lead to cognitive overload, disengagement, and fatigue. I explore how to shift from filling time to intentionally sequencing learning with purposeful content blocks that move students from passive to active participants. If you’re teaching in a block schedule, this episode will help you design that time so it actually works for you and your students.
