Before the mid-nineteenth century, people in the United States ate most foods only in season. 
Drying, smoking, and salting could preserve meat for a short time, but the availability of fresh meat, 
like that of fresh milk, was very limited; there was no way to prevent spoilage. Bui in 1810 a French 
inventor named Nicolas Appert developed the cooking-and-sealing process of canning. And in 1850's 
an American named Gail Borden developed a means of condensing and preserving milk. Canned 
goods and condensed milk became more common during the 1860's, but supplies remained low 
because cans had to be made by hand. By 1880, however, inventors had fashioned stamping and 
soldering machines that mass-produced cans from tinplate. Suddenly all kinds of food could be 
preserved and bought at all times of the year.

Other trends and inventions had also helped make it possible for Americans to vary their daily 
diets. Growing urban populations created demand that encouraged fruit and vegetable fanners to raise 
more produce. Railroad refrigerator cars enabled growers and meat packers to ship perishables great 
distances and to preserve them for longer periods. Thus, by the 1890's, northern city dwellers could 
enjoy southern and western strawberries, grapes, and tomatoes, previously available for a month at 
most, for up to six months of the year. In addition, increased use of iceboxes enabled families to store 
perishables. An easy means of producing ice commercially had been invented in the 1870's, and by 
1900 the nation had more than two thousand commercial ice plants, most of which made home 
deliveries. The icebox became a fixture in most homes and remained so until the mechanized 
refrigerator replaced it in the 1920's and 1930's. 
Almost everyone now had a more diversified diet,. Some people continued to eat mainly foods that 
were heavy in starches or carbohydrates, and not everyone could afford meat. Nevertheless, many 
families could take advantage of previously unavailable fruits, vegetables, and dairy products to 
achieve more varied fare.

We find that bright children are rarely held back by mixed-ability teaching. On the contrary, both 
their knowledge and experience are enriched. We feel that there are many disadvantages in streaming 
pupils. It does not take into account the fact that children develop at different rates. It can have a bad 
effect on both the bright and the not-so-bright child. After all, it can be quite discouraging to be at the 
bottom of the top grade! 
Besides, it is rather unreal to grade people just according to their intellectual ability. This is only 
one aspect of their total personality. We are concerned to develop the abilities of all our pupils to the 
full, not just their academic ability. We also value personal qualities and social skills, and we find that 
mixed-ability teaching contributes to all these aspects of learning. 
In our classrooms, we work in various ways. The pupils often work in groups: this gives them the 
opportunity to learn to co-operate, to share, and to develop leadership skills. They also learn how to 
cope with personal problems as well as learning how to think, to make decisions, to analyze and 
evaluate, and to communicate effectively. The pupils learn from each other as well as from the 
teachers. 
Sometimes the pupils work in pairs; sometimes they work on individual tasks and assignments, 
and they can do this at their own speed. They also have some formal class teaching when this is 
appropriate. We encourage our pupils to use the library, and we teach them the skills they need in 
order to do this effectively. An advanced pupil can do advanced work; it does not matter what age the 
child is. We expect our pupils to do their best, not their least, and we give them every encouragement 
to attain this goal.
