Answer the following questions:

• Which learning styles did all the children seem to enjoy and why?

      - Kinesthetic learning is the best for children because they like to learn with doing.

• Why do you think the teacher incorporates a variety of learning styles for the children?

- Incorporates a variety of learning styles are very important because not all the children learn in the same way and to remove boredom from them.

• Notice which activities are repeated with a variety of learning styles e.g. read a story, listen to a story, act the story, draw the story. Can you find other examples e.g. math or science.

- In science, children see solar group in video , sing a song for planets, color the planets , make a simple things made by paper of planets.

-In math, children are ordering events (they have to learn after, before, then and last ) in their books and order a familiar sequence of daily events, So they say their daily events and draw it by forcing in this word ( after, before, than and last ).

• How can teachers improve student learning by using a range of learning styles?
• - First of all children are not the same in thinking or in how they learn because of that teachers need to use range of learning styles and also to remove boredom from them. Children can not focus in one style for 1 hour.
