Have you ever sat in a movie, concert, or play that you really enjoyed but it lasted a little too long and your mind started to wander or your eyes started to close for a short siesta? I am sure that you have. Imagine sitting in a class that you are trying to pay attention to but it is longer than usual. Do you think there is a chance that you won’t stay focused and the extra time will become background noise? This will be one of the many struggles that our students will face in a 4 day week.
