Sinopsis

Gold Medal, Mom's Choice Awards

How I Learn provides a simple explanation of why some children struggle in school, introducing a discussion of learning disability in concrete terms for younger students.

The story introduces the concept of a learning disability in concrete terms for younger students, emphasizing that they are capable of learning, but they do so in a different way. The story also supports a personalized discussion, encouraging children directly to identify their own strengths and challenges. Feelings typically associated with learning problems and strategies to promote achievement are also addressed. You can encourage an honest and accurate discussion of learning difficulties as you read through this book with your child. Emphasize that many children find school challenging. Explain, too, that children-no matter how young or old they are-can use smart strategies to help them learn.

And that's not just OK. It's GREAT!

A Note to Parents, Caregivers, and Professionals is included, with suggestions to guide discussion and help children identify their particular strengths and challenges.
