What is Your Child's Learning Style?


I can remember looking at math word problems as a child, and feeling none of this made any sense. My dad, who was good at math, couldn’t understand why I was unable get it. So secretly I would draw pictures of the problem and “lo and behold, I got it!” Later I learned that I’m a visual learner and need to “see” the problem in order to understand.

Look at these categories and decide which sounds most like your child.
