Maille completed tasks such as copying a variety of shapes such as: circle, square, overlapping squares, wavy line, triangle, diamond, star and overlapping pencils. Maille continued to show a remarkable grasp pattern by holding the pencil with a three jaw chuck while completing tasks. She also used her left hand to stabilize the paper while her right hand completed the task. Maille was rushing to complete tasks, which made it look sloppy; this was the only weakness I noticed while completing the task. Maille scored above average in fine motor
As explained in the article “The Case for Working with Your Hands” by Matthew B. Crawford, we don’t only have regular classes in school, but also shop classes that have an artificial learning environment where we learn through kinesthetic learning. We have those classes because there are jobs in the world that are hands on. For instance, when something goes wrong with a car people don’t just go out and buy a new one. They take the car to an auto-mechanic
Kinesthetic learning can be classified as trial and error learning; learning by performing the task. Personally, it is not until I perform the task that I gain the confidence within myself that I have actually believe that I understand. The second style is Aural, which is to listen, discuss, talk, and question. This relates to me because I want to know every piece of information that is available to me, and I want to question every aspect that I do not
In “Getting into College” (2014) by John Langan, the author points out stresses of attending college. It's demanding picking a major, when you're not sure if you're going to get a position in the field you want to pursue after graduating. In addition, how flexible would you have to be to manage work, study and get good grades but at the same time be able to pay rent and bills. On top, what about your social life; yet going to parties to stay relevant and passing your class. Lastly, what about after graduation and all that gathering of money waiting to be payed off, which limits and prevents you from getting new possessions.
This will also become useful when coming to write coursework plans as I will already have a lot of the information at hand and won’t be having to try and remember information from lectures, instead I will have it all written down in a way that I understand and is useful to me. This is also useful as anything that I have taken away from a lecture I can read into more in-depth at home or research anything that I didn’t understand and re-write in a way that I will understand for future reference. This also backs up my read/write learning style. I can use diagrams and pictures where applicable to demonstrate/understand information, not study or read for long periods of time, use study material that uses all my sense i.e. videos, diagrams, field visits, lab work, speaking to lecturers about coursework with my first draft and seeing all feedback as being positive. This will help me to learn by not just sitting and reading in lots of information, it is a much more practical way of learning which links back into my kinesthetic learning preference and backs up the learning style theory of a kinesthetic learner (VARK, 2015).
(Eye - sight, Ears – sound, etc) 2) Students should be able to take an object in their environment and describe it using relevant senses. ( Pencil: Sight – Bright orange, thin like a stick; Touch – hard, smooth but brittle lead tips) 3) Students should grasp a better understanding for the importance of using sensory detail in order to better convey experiences and objects to their readers. Evidence of Learning: How will you know if your students understand your lesson? I will establish evidence of learning through two methods. First when presenting the lesson, I will ask students to identify on their own bodies which body part matches with which sense.
Tyne’s article starts out broad and then narrows in on each learning style. Tyne gives examples of the strengths and weaknesses of people with each of the three learning styles and encourages parents to identify their child’s learning style. LSSU is half as long as Tyne’s article. “Kinaesthetic, Auditory, and Visual Learning Styles for Children” is written in a more persuasive manner. Opposed to “What Learning Style Does Your Student Use?” which is more expository article.
Kinesiology is the study of body movement and physical therapy lies in a career that relates to aiding many people with injuries, diseases, or deformity. Rather than using drugs or surgery, physical methods such as massages, heat treatments, or exercise can rehabilitate the people to become the best they could ever be. Having the ability to help people physically and mentally has influenced my choice to enter the field of sport medicine. The soul purpose of a physical therapist is to help people gain their ability to move, decrease the amount of pain, and to be able to have complete function of their body.
The academic student attends school with a scholarly mentality. He focuses on class development, strives for an excellent GPA, and may be considered a brainiac. Spending countless sleeping hours studying for assessments, sacrificing extracurricular activities, and foregoing
Today more and more people are going to college. Most people go to college to build their knowledge and to study a specific field that they want to get a job in some day. College is marketed to most people as a creative place where they will learn everything they need to know to get a job and enter the “real world”. As college students right now, don’t get us wrong we do learn many things but, we have found that in many classes we take, we just focus on getting a good grade or a passing grade. At the end of the semester we walk out of some class barely learning a thing because we retain information just long enough to do good on a test or exam and then forget it all together when the class is done.
Practitioner observes a specific child, and the outcome of the observation will enable practitioners to plan for that child. A practitioner may observe a child in the mark- making or writing area and notice that the child finds it difficult to hold a pencil. The practitioner would then plan activities that would develop fine motor skills, such as threading or sorting small objects.
Body Kinesthetic: an individual’s ability to move an object skillfully and the coordination to move their body. Musical: an individual’s interpretation of tone and pitch including the understanding of rhythm and harmony. Visual/Spatial: an individual’s ability to judge distance as well as their ability regarding high order thinking such as understanding mazes and maps.
INTRODUCTION Most of the people consider that being a student is the most enjoyable and stress free part of our life. This is the stage where we are exploring different things in our environment. Being influenced by someone in good or in bad things. This is the stage wherein we have a lot of ambition or goals, that push our limits in order to achieve it in the future.
Students face various challenges throughout their college career. Thus, the problems that students have can range from balance, new lifestyle, to financial problems. Therefore, finding a balance between being a student, possibly working, and keeping up with their social life is a necessity. Similarly, others are away from home for the first time thus, they have a new responsibility with being on their own and findings ways to deal with homesickness. Likewise, being exposed to new financial situations is yet another challenge college students will need to learn how to cope with.
The Seven Learning Styles. Visual (spatial):You prefer using pictures, images, and spatial understanding. Aural (auditory-musical): You prefer using sound and music. Verbal (linguistic): You prefer using words, both in speech and writing. Physical (kinesthetic): You prefer using your body, hands and sense of touch.
