[quote=Anonymous]I don't see why this is a big deal, other than it's the norm to segregate by year in public school. Perhaps the rigid age segregation is the very thing that causes the social difficulties. In contrast, Montessori schools group kids together over a 3 year age span and it doesn't seem to cause such social angst. Perhaps because it's a normal part of the classroom they are just used to it? Maybe the independent work structure of a Montessori classroom forces kids to pay more attention to their own work than that of their peers, so differences are less obvious. 3,4,5 yrs 1st, 2nd, 3rd grade 4th, 5th, 6th grade 7th, 8th, 9th grade[/quote]
