Show me - hearing and reading are often not
enough.

Two apples plus two apples equals four. Tactile experiences increase
learning. Use objects for touching, counting and sorting.

Hear, see, touch, smell and taste - use them.
Record and hear spelling words and multiplication tables.
Experience - do it.
Dance, drama, music and poetry are ways of experiencing.

After hearing it and
reading it - explain
it to someone.

facial expressions and different tones of voice. This brings
learning to life.
Participate with another
person or persons -
group learning.
