Most people learn in three simple ways: visual (seeing), tactile (touching or doing) and auditory (hearing). When learning different things, experiment to see which learning style fits you best.
People who are auditory learners need to hear information in order to understand it. When studying for that next vocabulary quiz, read the words out loud, or get a friend or family member to quiz you verbally.
Or maybe you are a tactile learner. In this case, use objects such as Legos or beads to add and subtract for math problems.
If you are a visual learner, make charts and lists to study for your next history quiz.
Learning can also occur through imagination, and, believe it or not, you?re learning many things during recess at school, such as how to work in teams and handle certain situations with friends.
