What is learning style? It is individual’s mode of gaining knowledge, especially a preferred or best method.
Why is this topic important? • It helps lesson planning. • Identify students needs. • Supports engagement and motivation of the students.
Psychologists have identified seven basic learning styles: • Linguistic • Logical • Visual • Musical • Kinesthetic • Intrapersonal • Interpersonal
Three basic types of learning styles: • Visual- People learn by seeing what they are learning (see/imagine/pictures) • Auditory- People learn well when information is presented through music. (hear/listen/sounds) • Kinesthetic-Movement and physical activities help the people learn. (touch/move/experience)
Test Peers for finding out what learning styles they belong to
students retain: • 10% of what they read • 20% of what they hear • 30% of what they see • 50% of what they see and hear • 70% of what they say • 90% of what they say and do
Activity one: Action mimes • Students stand around the circle • Say sentence in the present continuous tense • The next student mimes and thinks about another sentence • This then passes on the next student to mime and so on.
Sentence Building-Students will build up sentences using cards .
Activity three: Listening to music • Students listen to the music • Correct the words in bold • Listen again and check
Reflection: • Will these activities work in your class ? • How will the students react? • Will you modify it? How? • What suggestions do you have for improving this methods?
