Recensioner i media

Beyond the practicality of multi-age configurations, however, as I read the book, I was reminded of the professional and personal richness I experienced through the years when working with my colleagues in the school that “grew us all up” as teachers. To be sure, we had our share of days that were more about despair than victory working often with a sense of being lost in a swamp. Nonetheless, our mission was to create the most defensible and engaging method we could muster to support the success of our remarkably diverse learners. In that process, we became architects of curriculum, instructional inventors, assessment and grading pioneers, shapers of schedules, and partners with our students.
