When you consider your own child’s day, what have you noticed?

Some people are naturally “morning people” (me!) and others are naturally “night owls” (my husband!)

Additionally, younger kids tend to do well in the mornings. Teenagers tend to become night owls. But even within those generalities, we have to always be mindful of exactly what is true for our children.

While you probably know instantly whether your child is a night owl or a morning person, or something in between, what about the rest of their day?

The middle school here uses a rotating schedule so that kids get to rotate through which class they are in during their most productive time.
