Captions available
The idea
Knowing how children develop helps teachers set activities and expectations that fit, since students of similar age still differ widely and different ages differ more.
In practice
A multi-grade teacher sees at once how differently seven- and ten-year-olds reason.
Where people slip
Developmental trends vary in how universal they are and in how strictly they follow a set sequence.
