    Mich thank you so much for this post, it was a real "Ah-ha!" moment for me. I know from my DDs CAPD testing that she has fantastic retention of information she finds meaningful and can map to something, but she has almost zero retention of anything "meaningless". Now the test was for auditory input but I think with her it probably applies across the board.

    It sounds like you have found great tutors for your children. A couple of other strategies I was reminded of when I read your post: SQ3R & the Cornell note-taking method-- study strategies.
