The Middle School Student’s Guide to Study Skills

In July 2012 Tween will be launching the third program in its college readiness series:

The Middle School Student’s Guide to Study Skills

Here’s a hint about our new program:  It’s a comprehensive, age appropriate study skills curriculum.   The program consists of 28 study skills lessons,  loads of worksheets and  activities.  It’ll  be classroom-ready, easy to teach, full of Mad Magazine style comics and goofy middle school humor, of course. This refreshing approach will make  teaching study skills  a breeze!
