TASK 5: Learning styles (Teaching Practice year1 semester2)

	Math	Science	Reading	Writing
Auditory	The teacher says the numbers and asks if we can double this numbers and the students hear the numbers and answer the teacher.	the students hear other students that record their sentence that says the sun is hot and after that they also record their own sentence	hear the sound of letters from the big cat phonics and they repeat after her	hear a video about (the) and the sound of each letter in the word (the)
Visual	watch a video about the numbers that we can double.	watch a video about the sun how it is hot and big and why the sun is important to plants and to the people	they see the story in the PowerPoint and then they read together with the teacher	watch a video about the word (the)
Kinesthetic	read a story and count how many cats in the first page and how many dogs in the second page and they write the numbers and then they color the picture and cut the paper so they could create their own story that about counting	the students did the sun using the color red and yellow in a black paper and then they did another sun using a paper plate and they stick triangle on the paper plate to make the rays	the students take their whiteboard and they write the words that in the big cat phonics	the teacher writes the word (the) at the whiteboard and then the students write it at their whiteboard and then at the notebook

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

(Kinesthetic) the children were engaging in what they were doing as kinesthetic style let the children create something, draw, and cut so the students like these things so they achieve more if the teacher uses this style of learning.

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

Will I think the first reason is so the students will not be bored in the classroom and the other reason is that maybe some students will not understand from the first time so he will maybe understand at the second time or third time so using different learning style is important.

·         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 they are learning about the sun so the teacher explains the sun by using vocabulary at the whiteboard and that the sun is hot and a big star and after that the students made the sun using colors and after that they did the sun with rays using paper plate and yellow paper and they also made the sun using play dough and finally they watched a video about the sun

·         How can teachers improve student learning by using a range of learning styles?

if the teacher uses auditory it will help the students to know the sounds of the words and visual help students in reading as they will know how each word look and kinesthetic combine these two so the students will know how to think and solve problems
