About the Author
I've been helping my two teenage daughters with homework and studying for years. I've seen what they know and what they don't know. I've tutored hundreds of high school students and have often been surprised by the large gaps in their knowledge base. For whatever reasons, many students just aren't learning the things their high school teachers will expect them to know: What's the capital of Brazil? How do you find the area of a triangle? What is a light year? When was the U.S. Civil War fought, and why? Who was Mark Twain? Golda Meir? William Henry Harrison? Which is larger, the galaxy or the solar system? What is wind chill factor? How do you multiply fractions? When do you use between and among? What's the world's largest lake? Island? City? Country? Mountain? These are just a few of the thousands of facts to be found in Learn This! No, it isn't everything a student needs to know. And it certainly contains some information no teacher would expect students to know. But this book is a great place to start for any seventh-, eighth-, or ninth-grader who wants to be ready for high school.
