TO FIND OUT MORE ABOUT SELF UNDERSTANDING WE INTERVIEWED ADRA VALENTINE

What are the different learning styles between and art room and a classroom?

The great thing in the art room is that it’s easier as a teacher to use more visual, more hands on and more physical learning. With some concepts it might be harder to show kids what’s going on

HOW DO YOU ADAPT YOUR TEACHING TO DIFFERENT LEARNING STYLES OF KIDS? Over the years, I’ve realized the way

that I teach are really more because of how I learn, and I add different ways of delivering material. It’s most important that if I have more visual reminders or cues, have things on tables that it makes a huge different. I have to explain directions in different ways.

WHAT HAVE YOU NOTICED ABOUT LEARNING STYLES AND STRATEGIES?

Kids who are more aware of their learning styles, can develop their own strategies. Often the kids who get a lot of help and figure out the strategies end up being some of the best students.
