The 56 lessons in Essential Study Skills (What Every Student Should Know)  will teach your students the study skills and executive function skills they need to “work smarter, not harder.” 

All program components are digital downloads (no print books).

Often, the reason why students fail to achieve their academic potential is not because they don’t try hard enough, but because they have never learned the basic study skills necessary for success. Students who master these skills will spend less time and accomplish more during homework and study time. Their test study will be more productive and they will get better grades. Reading comprehension and vocabulary will improve. Their writing will make more sense and essays will be easier to plan and complete. They will memorize better and forget less. Their schoolwork will seem easier and will be much more enjoyable.

Lastly, students will feel better about themselves as learners and will be more motivated to succeed. Ideal curriculum for study skill, life skill, advocacy/advisory, opportunity program classes. The easy-to-follow lesson format of 1. Personal Assessment 2. Study Skill Tips and 3. Reflection is ideal for self-guided learning and practice. Plus, this digital download (eBook) provides helpful online links to add to the study skill lessons.

Great for independent work during small groups, study skills electives, substitute lesson plans, rainy day activities, advocacy or advisory classes. Contact the publisher for school site licenses.

    Amazing pillows!
    Color: White, Size: Queen(Pack of 2)
    These are fantastic pillows! A little background. I'm a side sleeper and toss and turn throughout the night. I've struggled with sleep issues for literally decades - insomnia, tossing and turning, waking up multiple times a night to use the bathroom, waking up way too early and not being able to get back to sleep. Every night it's a combo of those things or all of those things. I've also had some neck pain and stiffness for a couple of months. If you've ever dealt with that you know it will affect sleep which will then affect productivity and mood. It's a terrible spiraling and compounding thing to deal with, very stressful. I figured the contour pillow I had which once was actually helping was unfortunately the culprit. So I went on the hunt for another pillow. I ordered what I thought was the old Rejuvenite pillow (those were fabulous!) and got burned on a bait and switch. The pillow ended up being way too soft and gave me worse neck pain. Figuring I'd try to salvage what was a $115 pillow, I invested in a very thin pillow to put underneath. It was too high. Getting pretty frustrated, I ordered the cheaper Utopia pillows here on Amazon. Those actually were not terrible because they did take away my neck pain, but I was still tossing and turning at night and still feeling unrested in the morning. I decided I'd give it one last shot and luckily found these when they were discounted by a few bucks. They didn't have many reviews which was actually a great sign for me because it means the company lets their product speak for itself. I got these in several days and was thrilled to see upon opening the package that they were sealed and the directions do not require you to open the package and let them expand for 24 hours. You literally just take the edges and fluff 2-3 times and that's it! They are ready to go and they definitely do feel perfect after doing that. I was skeptical when I put them on my bed because they are soft and I worried they'd be too soft. I felt my head sink into the pillow a bit and then was surprised to feel at a certain point it just feels like the pillow is cradling your head with the right amount of support. I wouldn't describe it as firm, just soft but stable support. Really comfortable. But the real test was how it would perform during sleep. I'm so thrilled to report that I had an amazing night of sleep! No neck pain, no stiffness, zero tossing and turning, no insomnia, no waking up during the middle of the night, and no waking up early. I put my head down, fell asleep, and slept like a log for about 7.5 hours straight, which is literally unheard of in my world. I'm very lucky if I get 5 solid hours of sleep. I woke up and popped out of bed. My mood was great (still is later in the day) and I was not tired in the afternoon when I normally feel the fatigue kicking in. This is the first day for as long as I can remember that I do not feel that nagging tiredness behind my eyes and in my body that always seems to be a steady background actor in my life. I feel great and full of energy and I was able to tackle a bunch of tasks on my someday list. This is so promising I didn't want to wait to share. If you are on the fence and are dealing with similar issues to mine, I'd encourage you to just try these. What's also amazing is these come in a set. I'm only using one so I basically have another one to use if the first one ever fails. This is the best investment for sleep I've ever made! Update: Well, after a trial period I'm removing a star because my dreamy sleep was short lived. I started to wake up more frequently during the night with these and gave up midway through the night one night. I'm still using these for back support while I sit up or hang out in bed because they are still super comfortable that way and oddly these work well for naps. Hopefully, you have better luck than me!

    Absolutely love this pillow!
    Color: White, Size: Queen(Pack of 2), Color: White, Size: Queen(Pack of 2)
    The pillow was very well packaged and extremely easy to open. As soon as I took it out of the package, it immediately expanded and became fluffy within seconds. I was honestly surprised at how quickly it regained its full shape. The pillow feels very soft and comfortable, but it still provides great medium-firm support. It has excellent resilience and bounces back quickly after being pressed, so it never feels flat. I’ve been using it both for sleeping and for supporting my lower back when sitting, and it works great in both situations! I also really like the embroidered logo, which looks very delicate and well made, it adds a nice premium touch to the pillow. It would also make a great gift for family or friends.

    Heavenly soft and comfortable.
    Color: White, Size: King(Pack of 2)
    This is a great pillow. I bought 2 king size for my daughter. They are so soft but have some heft to them. They don't squish flat. They plump up so nice. She said like having a cloud for a pillow. I love Serta. They have always been good. Buy it and sleep like you're in heaven.

    Decent
    Color: White, Size: Queen(Pack of 2)
    They are only used as a backup pillow for my special pillows I use since I have pillows with holes in the middle for my earrings. I also use them for when I lean on my headboard to watch tv. I like them they are squishy. Kind of expensive I feel like but not terrible
