Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Preparing, applying and sitting for a scholarship test can be a gruelling and competitive process for a child and the child's parents, and the disappointment of not being awarded a scholarship can be demoralising and disappointing. Scholarship tests aim to identify the very best potential students for an elite school from a pool of outstanding candidates. To be of any use, scholarship tests must find often very small differences in the academic performance of very high- achieving students. A Parent's Guide to Scholarship Tests aims to help parents better understand scholarship tests, so that they can help their child do their best when it counts. The book contains: *detailed information about the CSTP, PSP, SST and ACEP scholarship tests *advice on preparing for the test *example questions and sample answers with detailed explanations, strategies and approaches *suggestions on helping your child develop the skills and abilities the tests target *advice on how to manage expectations and better understand results *case studies and advice from participating schools.

Book excerpt: A guide for parents to help children of all ages process the onslaught of unfiltered information in the digital age. Education is not solely about acquiring information and skills across subject areas, but also about understanding how and why we believe what we do. At a time when online media has created a virtual firehose of information and opinions, parents and teachers worry how students will interpret what they read and see. Amid the noise, it has become increasingly important to examine different perspectives with both curiosity and discernment. But how do parents teach these skills to their children? Drawing on more than twenty years’ experience homeschooling and developing curricula, Julie Bogart offers practical tools to help children at every stage of development to grow in their ability to explore the world around them, examine how their loyalties and biases affect their beliefs, and generate fresh insight rather than simply recycling what they’ve been taught. Full of accessible stories and activities for children of all ages, Raising Critical Thinkers helps parents to nurture passionate learners with thoughtful minds and empathetic hearts.
