Table Top Lessons!
According to an article from the Friends’ Central School, “Some children learn best by looking at visuals. Some children learn best by listening to a parent or teacher speak. And some children learn best by reading and writing about something. These are called visual, auditory, and reading/writing learning styles, respectively. But there is a fourth learning style that is easy to overlook: Kinesthetic learning, which is a fancy way of saying “learning by doing.” Students with special needs often avoid answering questions in class because they fear being bullied by peers for their disabilities whether it’s from a speech impairment or a learning disability. With the use of these tables students have a way to communicate with peers and teachers without the risk of being embarrassed by speaking out in front of the whole group. Hands-on opportunities will be used to promote the retention of basic educational concepts, and foster reading and math skills. Students will excel because they will have more access to hands-on approaches to learning.
