How Your Child Is Smart: A Life-Changing Approach to Learning

By Dawna Markova and Anne R. Powell

Not all children learn in the same way. Written by two educators, How Your Child is Smart identifies six patterns of learning and teaches parents how to help their children learn and communicate most effectively. Through simple questions, activities, and charts, parents can identify their child's pattern and learn how he or she can best be taught in school.
