Learning Success is very pleased to offer you this unique
family learning program. Now, parents and teachers have available in one book
quick tests to check key writing skills along with easy-to-learn games designed
to develop those skills. The tests are in the front of the book. They are
followed by an extensive game section. Because the tests are in somewhat
sequential order, and the games are easily adjusted to different age levels,
parents and teachers will find the book valuable for all ages from pre-school
through junior high. Record sheets are provided on which to track your child's
progress. The age or grade level common for each skill or proficiency standard
to be introduced is included to help evaluate growth. We at Learning success
believe the home is the foundation of success. This is recognized by the great
emphasis today in getting parents actively involved in their children’s
education. Your WRITING GAMES FOR SCHOOL SUCCESS
gives you the tools to significantly increase your child’s writing
achievement. It does this by providing you with: |
|
1.
A clear explanation of the sequence of writing skills important for your
child to learn from pre-school through junior high.
2.
Simple tests to quickly evaluate what skills your child has learned and
what he or she needs to learn next.
3.
Fun games the whole family can enjoy to teach each writing skill. The games are
especially designed to put powerful learning principles and strategies to work
for your child.

Look how even a 5%
increase in your child's learning rate over the school years
can result in
your child's achievement by the 10th grade
being 3 or more years above what it
would have been
without extra home support. Think what that would mean to your
child
and the opportunities it would open for the rest of his or her life!
|
 It is important, too, that as your child grows and develops,
he or she does not skip any basic writing skills that would interfere with his
or her future writing success. Your
WRITING GAMES FOR SCHOOL SUCCESS will keep
you continually up-to-date on your child’s progress.
It will give you time to head off problems before they occur.
Problems that already now exist can be quickly acted upon.
Success at school increases a child’s motivation to work harder, and
being better prepared enables him or her to learn more from the instruction
given at school. This book can also provide teachers, counselors, special
education teachers, and other school personnel with the tools to provide extra
power to their programs and their ability to meet individual student needs.
Whether used at school or at home, we suggest you schedule
one hour a week to enjoy the program with your children. This could include doing a bit of testing, recording the
results, and playing one or more of the suggested games. The children will take it from there. You will often see them playing a game you introduced, or
asking you to play.
