The Promise of Acceleration: A Strength-Based Plan to Propel Academically Vulnerable Learners - Paperback

Every child wants to be successful, even those who have gotten behind. It may not look that way, with their heads propped up on their elbows in feigned disinterest. "This is boring," they proclaim. Or "I could do it if I wanted."

Weeks and months pass. Sometimes, even with academic interventions, the gaps remain, or even expand.

Enter acceleration, an academic process that provides a fresh start for learners. Captivating experiences provide just enough prior knowledge to set up success in class today. What about all those gaps? Remediation occurs, but just in time for new learning. That way, students apply those revisited skills and can realize success.
