As educators, our ultimate goal for all students is that they begin to apply strategies on their own; that they learn how to be independent, strategic, successful learners. Students need to know exactly what to do when learning gets difficult. This book is full of activities, strategies, and ideas to help students of all learning abilities become independent learners. Nothing in this book is an addition to your curriculum. The suggestions in this book are meant to help you deliver your curriculum, not add to it. And the recommendations in this book can be implemented immediately -- no need to spend hours making and buying new things. (Grades 1-5)
