Getting Started
The first step in meeting the needs of your child is to understand how each child learns. Let Me Learn helps you do just that. Let Me Learn starts with the understanding that all learning is an interactive process of thinking, feeling, and doing. This interactive process reveals itself in four learning patterns. These four learning patterns are sequence, precision, technical reasoning and confluence.
The degree to which your child uses each of these four learning patterns is registered by the Learning Connections Inventory. The LCI asks individuals to respond to 28 statements and three open-ended questions about learning, and identifies the patterns a learner uses “First,” “As Needed,” or “Avoids.” The learning patterns identified provide valuable insight and information regarding the learning process for each family member. Learning patterns also reflect how family members interact with one another. Click here to take the LCI on-line.
The combination of these patterns determines how your child learns. There is no good or bad learning combination, no right or wrong. Your child’s learning combination impacts learning, both in and out of school.
The next step is to help your child understand how s/he can make his/her learning combination work successfully. Let Me Learn will provide your child and you with strategies to succeed. These practical tips will support your child’s learning combination.
Your child will make use of effective strategies (link to strategies page) that will insure the interactive use of all four learning patterns whenever and wherever they are needed. Let Me Learn helps your child become a self-directed learner who solves problems and takes increasing responsibility for his/her own learning. And you, as a parent, will be empowered to truly partner with your child as both celebrate the joy of learning!
