Learning Styles

We have been discussing how it is easiest for us to learn. 
We have identified our learning style and are going to try to use this knowledge to help us learn better.
We worked through some questions and analysed our answers to work our learning styles. This happened because some of us are having problems learning our basic facts. We decided whether we were Visual, Auditory or kinaesthetic learners.

Auditory people learn best by:
·       Putting/ summarising things into our own words
·       Reading things out loud
·       Using tapes and CDs
·       Explaining things to other people
Visual people learn best by:
·       Writing down the key facts and making cards
·       Visualising what they are learning. They might sit back, look up etc. to try and get a picture in their head.
·       Writing notes and sticking them around the place.
·       Using mind maps, pictures, cartoon story boards, photo stories and diagrams
Kinaesthetic people learn best by:
·       Moving about while they learn
·       Using actions to imprint the information (waving, tapping hands fingers etc)
·       Using different actions for different ideas.

We all found ti fascinating and researched on the internet to find out more about ourselves. It was scarily true
We have each made a poster that we are going to to put on our blog.
