Most Likely to Succeed – learning skills for success

January 7, 2016 by ES Ivy

Most Likely to SucceedMost Likely to Succeed, by Tony Wagner and Ted Dintersmith has been on my reading stack for awhile. Our school district will have a special showing, so I moved it to the top of the stack! I’m really hopeful that a switch to this approach will help the homework load problem in our school. But, more importantly, from my research so far – including reading The Smartest Kids in the World, How Children Succeed, and Outliers – I think this approach will help better prepare our children for success in LIFE, not just in school.

I’m going to try a new approach, posting quotes to Twitter and Facebook as I read. Don’t have time to read the book? Follow along on my Twitter or Facebook account. (Kindle posts to my author personal Facebook account and won’t allow to share to my page, E.S. Ivy Author. If anyone knows how to fix this, let me know!)
