The Cluster Grouping Handbook

The book begins with the "whys" of cluster grouping, with a PowerPoint to present the explanation to teachers, school board members and parents provided on the accompanying digital content. Winebrenner and Brulles explain how today's cluster grouping differs from yesterday's tracking and what makes it a good option instead of a bad one. Research details are provided for all the statistics and conclusions drawn in the book, backing up all the claims made about cluster grouping — it really is a great option for any school and every student!

Next, "The Cluster Grouping Handbook" details the "hows" of setting up cluster grouping in your school, with detailed plans and all the training materials you'll need to bring your faculty up to speed. Winebrenner and Brulles explain how this strategy works for all your students, and how it simplifies the job of all your teachers. At the same time, they demonstrate how cluster grouping improves education for all students, including the gifted student, the high-achieving student and the low-achieving student in any given subject.

"The Cluster Grouping Handbook" is a one-stop solution to a variety of the education challenges of today, and Winebrenner and Brulles' easy-to-read, easy-to-use guide is a winner that should be implemented in every school to save money and improve education for all students. This book shouldn't be on your school's bookshelf; it should be in the hands of your teachers, coordinators and administrators, as they train and implement cluster grouping using this guide!
