You do best when moving and doing hands-on experiments! You may find that you fidget, tap pencils, leg-bounce or have a general inability to sit still.
Sitting still, especially during tests can be distracting. Ask your teacher for permission ahead of time to get up and move during testing. Examine: your eating, hydration and sleeping habits to make sure they are hitting the mark for your age and activity level, possible social situations at home and school as well as any other “gut” feelings you may have as possible reasons for struggling to concentrate at school. Schedule an appointment with your teacher and/or school counselor for support, resources and suggestions.
IMPORTANT! This is not a bucket system. Each section shares many of the characteristics of and suggestions for that learning styles. EACH LEARNER IS UNIQUE AND MAY IDENTIFY WITH MORE THAN JUST ONE TYPE OF EARNING STYLE, AND/OR FIND HABITS HELPFUL IN MORE THAN ONE STYLE. This means that you may see ideas that sound like you within more than just one style, and combining the hacks of each style you identify with can help with staying organized and learning in a way that is perfectly unique to you!
