Hello,

I’m a teacher moving to a new district. Traditionally I have taught multi grade in very small districts. I have only had a few years where I teach 1 grade level. This upcoming year my teaching partner is interested in departmentalizing the education so we each teach fewer subjects and the students move between. Does anyone have any experience doing this? I know my immediate reaction but would like to hear some viewpoints. It’s a middle level elementary grade class.

Thanks!

Edit: Thank you for all your thoughts. I have been trying to decide if it would be a good fit for me and now I know.
