  • Working With Visual-Spatial Learners

    $20.00
    Presenter: Stacy Hughes, Burleson ISD
    Core Area: Differentiated Curriculum 
    Grade Level: Elementary & Secondary 
    Hours: 1   

    “I wish I had a camera on my forehead and you had a screen on yours. Then I could show you what I am thinking.” That statement might sound strange to most of us, but that's how visual-spatial learners think.

    The traditional classroom setting defeats a visual-spatial learner, who may also be twice exceptional (2E), ADHD, and/or Autistic. When your classroom is designed to cater to their unique needs, not only will your visual-spatial learner's potential be unlocked, every student in your class will reap the rewards.
