Learning can be fun?

If you have children that are visual learners or just want to spice up your cirriculum here is a fun idea for teachers. "Children want to learn to the degree that they are unable to distinguish learning from fun. They keep this attitude until we adults convince them that learning is not fun."-- Glenn Doman

This website has some really fun games on them that you can use for your classroom and integrate into the cirriculum.

Powerpoint Games

As a teacher do you what in your classroom your visual learners pay the most attention to? The answer is your blackboards. It is so important in your all learner friendly classroom to make your bulletin boards educational and informational. What is it about bulletin boards that visual learners can take their information? When visual learners are able to "see" the concept they will be able to comprehend more. Knowing this what can we as teachers do in the classroom that will be more comprehensive to visual learners? We need to make handouts, we need to use overheads, what is another option? Just what I talked about earlier is powerpoint games. With these powerpoint games you will not only be able to help the visual learner, but the auditory, social, and tactile learners as well. Make sure that your cirriculum is sensitive to all learners and don't forget you can have fun too. As I have taught in the classroom I have noticed and science has factualized this as well that if children learn as they are "geared" to learn they will retain the information faster and for longer periods of time. Don't rely on just me; however there are so many books out there on multiple intelligences. Check it out!
