From Amplify - It has good questions to consider posing to school leadership when thinking through the implementation of this resource.

From Amplify - Some useful bits in here

Sample Schedules (From Amplify)

ekc3 — 2025-01-21 00:36:37 UTC

I like these because looking at their sample schedules and then contrasting that against what an international school schedule looks like really shows why there is a need for adapting this resource to the international school context. It's not a perfect fit.

This document is HUGELY helpful in thinking through where time may be "bought back" from the intended program time allotment. Some great visuals in here, too.

This document was originally designed to support hybrid or virtual learning, but there are some good flow charts and Yes/No question frames that could be harnessed to support teams in focusing on how to prioritize the primary focus objectives for each lesson.
