How do multi-age classrooms help Montessori students develop social skills?
Elementary students are at a stage where social interaction is very important, and Compass Star Elementary recognizes that need. By placing students in classes with a broad spectrum of ages children are given the opportunity to participate in groups, become leaders, and learn from older students. By being part of different social dynamics the child is prepared for real-life situations, where they are expected to interact with people from a wide age, social, and academic range.
