Three in one Bio class

I observed an amazing class today.
As a formative assessment to check for understanding of their work on ecology Mr. Amaral had his IB Yr 1 Biology class prepare work stations in which they taught various ecological concepts to a third grade class. Third grade are covering the same topics in their Science unit. At the same time another group of students, the IB Yr 2 Psychology class, recorded observations of the third grade class as part of their unit on Developmental Psychology. Twelve HS students teaching 25 LS students with no "teacher" involvement except as observers.
