Multi-age classrooms

Multi-age classrooms are educational settings where students of different ages and grade levels are taught together in the same classroom. Rather than grouping students strictly by age or grade, this approach allows for mixed-age learning, fostering collaboration, mentorship, and tailored instruction. It promotes flexibility in teaching methods, encourages peer support, and can meet individual learning needs more effectively. Multi-age classrooms are often used in progressive or alternative education settings, emphasizing social development, creativity, and personalized growth, while maintaining a cohesive, community-oriented environment suitable for diverse learning styles.
