CHILDREN WHO FAIL AT SCHOOL BUT SUCCEED AT LIFE
Lessons from Lives Well-Lived
Hardback
By Mark Katz. Find new ways to support struggling students through the stories of five people who were considered school failures but as adults enjoy successful and meaningful lives. This easy-to-use guide answers three questions: "Why did they fail?", "How did they succeed?", and "What can we learn?" Simple but powerful methods are offered to help reduce juvenile crime, dropping out, and substance abuse; improve health and well-being; and prevent medical problems later in life. Strategies for combating learning, behavioral, and emotional challenges are drawn from the fields of clinical and social psychology, cognitive neuroscience, and education. Grades K–12. Index.
