Description

Formal education may have come full circle. Schools have evolved from multi-aged one-room school houses to single-age classrooms, and now some schools are returning to multi-aged classrooms. Educators are revisiting the concept and promise of mixed-age groupings to encourage individual learning and development in a diverse environment.
