A great way to understand multiage philosophy

This book is a great resource for anyone interested in teaching or understanding the philosophy of multiage instruction. The first section deals mostly with the underlying research and history regarding graded and non-graded classrooms. The authors offer many clear and convincing arguments for multiage instruction. The middle is how to change from a graded to a multiage classroom or school. The last section has practical teaching strategies and advice for managing the organized chaos of a multiage classroom, or any classroom where a teacher wishes to differentiate curriculum in a straight grade class. There are summaries at the end of each chapter, and useful lists and summary notes along the way. This is an excellent summary of the current educational research, but is not a black-line master style teacher guide.
