| Summary |
This book covers everything you need to know in preparing children for both pre-tests and 11+ entrance exams for admission into independent and grammar schools. It sets out ways in which children can become successful and confident learners over the years and months building up to these tests taken in Year 6. The author passionately believes that intelligence is not fixed but can be nurtured and grown with the right support. The key to putting this into action is to understand how you learn and to master the strategies for learning, retaining and recalling information effectively. This book. |
