Multi-Grade Classrooms
What is a multi-grade classroom? Most of us today are accustomed to a classroom of students who are all in the same grade. This is called a single-grade classroom. When a teacher teaches a classroom of students of different ages and grade levels, this is called a multi-grade classroom. A multi-grade classroom can offer benefits not easily replicated in a single-grade classroom. |
