...be presented in a way that makes sense to them:) I teach to all modalities (visual, tactile, and auditory). What that means is...if your child is a visual learner meaning they need to SEE it ...I use lots of pictures and other visual aids, if they learn better by listening then I combine the visual with lots of descriptions, if they need to use their body and hands then we do lots of hands-on experiments:)...
