I teach at a school which has multi-age, multi-ability classrooms.
Overall, it works pretty good. I guess it's because thought is given
to which classroom would the student best succeed. As many of you
know, Gaenslen is a school with a 40% disability rate. It's a little
harder with mixed classrooms to tell who was held back, etc. Some
seem to benefit from having a teacher for the second time around. I
also like how the older students tend to help the younger students.
Sometimes, it's the opposite!
