4 Star Strategy Rating

Age group(s) for which this strategy is helpful:
Preschool and Younger
Elementary School
Middle School

Instructions for using this strategy:
Instead of asking my son questions, I have him ask me (i.e.,math, spelling, etc.). This way, as I answer, he reads the the questions and answers and hears them aloud (from me). This takes the focus off him, yet he feels he has the authority since he can help and correct me. --Of course, I do not let on how this reverse learning works, I just let him think that he is the one who knows everything, and is helping someone who doesn't. After doing this strategy for multipication lessons, his teacher informed me that he was the fastest and most accurate student in all three classes for knowing his multiplication problems during quizzes. It works! I wish every student (and parent) the best of luck! Happy learning!!!
