Why Multiage?• Why should children work in multi-age groups?• • Removing traditional grade-level grouping reduces the yearly time constraints placed on children,
allowing them to work to mastery of high standards at their individual rates.• Flexible use of multi-age groups provides children with many good role models.• Advanced learners across all levels have the opportunity to be challenged and accelerated in their
learning.• The amount of support and help available to all children is increased through teaming and
collaboration.• Children learn social responsibility as they learn to work cooperatively.• Leadership qualities of students are enhanced through group work.• Children deepen their learning and grow academically as they explain their work to others.• • What are the benefits of continuous progress?• • Providing a family atmosphere for learning for both children and adults. • Enabling teachers to build a long term relationship with each student.• Student progress is effectively monitored over time.• Increasing meaningful learning experiences for all children.• Strengthening student’s positive attitudes about school.• Meeting the individual needs of every student through appropriate instruction.• Fostering self-esteem, leadership skills and sensitivity to others.• Developing a stronger relationship between home and school over time.• Reducing stress in children as they continue learning at appropriate rates in a familiar atmosphere.
