We often hear stories about parents thinking that their child was not interested in school and then suddenly turning out to be such a genius. What changed? For the most part, we bet that it's probably because the child's parent or educator has figured out how the child learns best and what motivates him – this is where learning style comes in.Learning style refers to an individual's preferred way of absorbing, processing, comprehending, and retaining information.
We will give you a run through the six most basic learning styles of children. To know what they are, how to recognise them, and how to apply your knowledge of them, keep on reading.From the term itself, you can tell that this type of learner absorbs information better when presented through a visual. So, that's anything from a drawing to a graph to a documentary.
You can provide instructional videos and posters, and decorate their room with posters or prints of educational materials, such as the solar system, the classics, where our food comes from, aquatic life, etc. Auditory learners will be the ones who thrive in lecture-type settings. If at school, this type of learner is expected to work independently a great deal of the time, he will be more likely to struggle, and may probably need auditory reinforcement at home.
To enhance the verbal learner's skills, spend as much time as possible reading to and with your child. Provide them with a variety of subjects and types of materials including cookbooks, hidden object books, word find puzzles, crosswords, and storybooks. Playing board games that require reading directions will also be an enjoyment for them.Kinesthetic learners are those who love to learn through touch and movement. Hands-on activities are right up their alley.
