Editor's Notes

  • #4 Teacher: Be sure to read each of the slides completely for auditory learners.
  • #10 Teacher: Have students stand up next to their desk, stretch their arms forward, and then answer this question (tactile learners)
  • #17 Teacher will record A, B, or C next to her student roster so she knows which learning style each student is. Students are more likely to be honest with their largest # of responses if they don’t know what they mean yet.
  • #18 Ask students: When people were reading off their letter, did everyone say the same letter? What does it mean that a lot of people said different letters? We all learn differently. Therefore, as your teacher I will be using a variety of strategies that will help people learn in different ways.
  • #19 Have students write at least 2 things on the same page in their journal/paper that is a good strategy for them to learn best based on their style. Such as “Strategies for me to learn best are…” Then have students turn to their partner and share one thing they think will help them learn. Teacher: Randomly select a few students to share what their partner told them.
