5.0 out of 5 stars
Excellent source for grades 5-12+,
By A Customer
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Learning to Learn: Strengthening Study Skills and Brain Power (Kids' Stuff) (Paperback)
If I could rate this book more than five stars, I would. I've been a study skills consultant for many years, and a high school teacher even longer. This book I recommend to both parents and teachers. It comes with duplicating rights for an individual teacher's classroom (but the amount of paper you'd use if you duplicated it all would be prohibitive for most schools). In my classroom, I've picked and chosen the units I felt would be most helpful for each class. The work is clearly explained with good examples and self-tests. The illustrations are whimsical enough that they are not offensive to high school students. What's even nicer is that the students see the value in these lessons--they don't have to be sold.

First Choice for a course on study skills.,
By A Customer
This review is from: Learning to Learn: Strengthening Study Skills and Brain Power (Kids' Stuff) (Paperback)
I give a course on study skills and have read all the available literature. This one tops them. Worksheets are clear and easily understood by students of all ages. The advice contained includes the gamut of techniques. Only reservation is that it's longer than neccessary.

Excellent rescource,
By A Customer
This review is from: Learning to Learn: Strengthening Study Skills and Brain Power (Kids' Stuff) (Paperback)
I teach study skills to 7th and 8th graders--this is the text I prefer. It is clear and well-written, even if a little wordy. I teach it in units, having the students learn one skill, then building on it. Good Stuff!!
