associations: when you connect two or more things to help you memorize something flashcards: cards with information to help students learn gestures: using body language to express yourself

Our senses are useful to us every day, all the time. Here are some ways that our senses can help us learn.

The visual learner – learning by seeing Visual means that you use your eyes and sense of sight.

These things help you learn: • Looking at pictures of the things you are reading about, such as photographs and drawings.

• Using different colours when you read or take notes.

• Creating mind maps to remember facts and important information.

• Replacing words with drawings.

• Underlining and highlighting important words and information in texts.

The auditory learner – learning by listening Auditory means that you use your sense of hearing.

These things help you learn: • Sounds and/or music. You like to listen to a teacher explain instead of reading the text yourself. You use music to learn new things by writing your own song or jingle or simply by humming the words to yourself as you go over your notes.

• Sound recordings in the background. You like to have music or other sounds on in the background when you study.

• Rhythm and rhyme. Repeating facts using rhythm and rhyme makes you remember them more easily.

• You like to think out loud and read out loud when you study.

The verbal learner – learning by speaking and writing Verbal means speaking and writing. It’s not one of the senses, but you use your voice to learn new things. You learn better when you: • Explain things to others.

• Repeat words or paragraphs out loud.

• Summarize or repeat information in your own words.

The logical learner – learning by using systems and structure Logical means that you use your analytical abilities.

• You like structure and you like to use systems, for example by making lists.

• You use associations to learn. For example, if you’re trying to learn numbers you can connect a number to one that is already familiar by thinking “that is my dad’s birthday” or “my friend’s phone number”.

• You also like to use keywords to help you remember.

The physical learner – learning by using your body Physical means that you like to use your body, hands and sense of touch.

These things help you learn: • Using physical objects. For example: Holding flashcards with notes to remember new words or information. You might also like to fiddle with your eraser or your pencil while you are focusing on something.

• Role playing. For example: You can pretend that you’re a scientist or a teacher and explain the subject you’re studying to someone else. This can help you understand and learn better.

• Using body language and gestures to explain something.

• Throwing, bouncing or kicking a ball while talking or thinking about Do - did - done something you want to learn, Go - went - gone See - saw - seen such as English words or grammar for homework.

After reading, answer the following questions: - Did you find a learning style in the text that works for you?

- Was it hard to find just one?

- Do you use several of the learning styles in the text? If so, which ones? Check the boxes.

- Most of us use a mixture of these ways of learning.

Why do you think it’s useful to know your learning style?
