Every Once instructor needs three hours of time officially in their schedule for every ten students they will be working with (15 minutes of instruction for every student plus some additional time for transitions between students when needed). To be clear, during those scheduled hours, the Once instructor will not be available in any other capacity (to be a substitute, aide, etc.).
To make sure that every student in the Once program receives their daily 15 minutes of instruction, it is crucial to include explicit times and locations for every Once session in the schedules for the class, the student, and the instructor. To make sure students don’t miss the same part of their base schedule each day, students can receive Once during a different period on different days. Successful schedules maximize the time a student has with a Once instructor while causing the least amount of disruption to the general classroom instruction and rhythm.
Below are three sample schedules.
