Double Entry Journal #3

Quote: This theory divides students into three types according to their learning styles: visual learners, auditory learners, and kinesthetic learners

Your brain is always at work in many different
ways(shown by different colors).
Response: I believe that this theory is true. Every student is different and learns differently, but they can be divided into three main groups: visual, auditory, and kinesthetic. In my classroom, I plan on finding activities that demonstate all three to help any student learn. I want to say things over and over, consistently show students how to do things- if they do not understand, and have them participate in activities with their hands to see it and participate in it as well. Students can be a bit of more than one of these learning styles, so therefore it helps to do all three. I, myself, believe that for me it helps to have all three. Taking notes all day, doesn't help as much as doing it and hearing it said to me. But writing it does in a way help with memorization, if I repetitievely write it. I just get bored and distracted so it would be better to have a hands on activity or discussion where I hear other people talk about it as well.
