Learning to Learn--Speedy Delivery--Awesome Book
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 16 years ago
This book arrived in three days. I was really impressed. I have had this book before, but I'm afraid another teacher liked it even more than I did. This has graphic organizers that really work for the everyone, not just the learning challenged. My high-schoolers, as well as my elementary crowd have found this book helpful.

This is a terrific book! The strategies in it are useful and easy to follow. In being able to understand how each student learns, you can better teach that child. Also, when the students themselves understand how they learn, they can adapt their studying to fit their personal style.
Excellent source for grades 5-12+

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.
Excellent rescource

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!!
First Choice for a course on study skills.
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 26 years ago
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.
