we also have only 4 hrs/wk. (we might get 5 hrs in 11th grade next year....) what we did (for the 5 pt kids) is - in 11th grade, do ONLY lit. nothing else all year. we finished the logs this year (11th grade) - with a lot of pressure, but it is doable. next year - 12th grade - we will start with a project. and work on a (oldF) G level all year. winter - they will do E. march - the oral. summer - G. the idea is that we will not really have to "prepare" them for E, because of all the lit they did in 11th grade. other schools have done this. but i agree - we really need 5 hrs/wk in all the grades. good luck sara g On Wed, Jul 11, 2012 at 4:36 PM, Ruhama Ben-David <ruhamabd@xxxxxxxxx>wrote: > I am one of those teachers who has been teaching lit all the years.
