Let them thrive : a playbook for helping your child succeed in school and in life

__Let Them Thrive__ provides parents with a practical understanding of how education works—and how it can work better—for their children. Every learner is as unique as his or her fingerprints. But one-size-fits-all schooling doesn't account for those variations. In this highly readable book (with unique cartoon illustrations), bestselling author, educator, and parent Katie Novak introduces the research-based framework Universal Design for Learning (UDL). Parents learn the origins of UDL in the learning sciences and in practice. (UDL is prominent in the federal Every Student Succeeds Act). They also learn strategies, tips, and tools to support their children's learning in school and in life. __Let Them Thrive__ is an important new contribution to the growing literature on UDL, the first such book directly aimed at parents.
