How long is each CommonLit 360 lesson?

The length of each CommonLit 360 Lesson varies. Each unit provides a pacing guide that offers an estimate of how long every lesson in a unit will take. You can find this pacing guidance on the Unit Page by clicking Unit Resources in the top right corner and choosing "Unit Guide."

The pacing guidance is based on 45-minute middle school periods and 90-minute high school periods. When scrolling through the pacing guide, you will be able to see how many days are allotted for a lesson. This is the CommonLit recommendation, but you should make modifications based on your classes. 

Additionally, you can find pacing guidance for each lesson on the Unit Page. Each lesson has an estimated time label so that you can get a quick idea of how long each lesson may take you and your students to complete. 

Furthermore, you can find a section-by-section pacing guide for Reading and Writing Lessons on the first page of the teacher copies.
