Today, we had our first Blitz Day of the year. Everyone, who teaches 7th graders, did a Writing lesson, and everyone, who teaches 8th graders, taught a Math lesson or a Reading lesson. My coworker and I created the lessons, prepared the materials, and got everything distributed in advance. The day went well, teachers even enjoyed the lessons, and we got a little more practice in before next week's testing.
We have done Blitz in the past, but it has focused on Science and Social Studies for 8th grade. This year, our principal wanted to add something for all tested subjects. We have never done anything of this magnitude for these content areas, so it was a learning experience, but it went well overall. Every teacher participated this time, and we kept the regular daily schedule and didn't rearrange anyone or create different student groups.
