In class, complete a short quiz with the children to find out how they learn best; each child will learn differently as they are all unique! Ensure that not every lesson follows the same pattern of learning; change it up with some pop-corn reading, copying information from the board and using Play-Doh to make objects related to the subject.

- Find out what type of learner you are by picking something cool and trying to change it into a way you learn best.
- Maybe you could make up an action to go with it, draw it or make it into a rap.
- Share this with your friends and family!
Knowing how you learn means you can remember facts quicker and for longer. It also makes learning easier and boosts your confidence!
A study in the UK showed that once you know your learning style, you can see lots of benefits! Like:
