Notes
Children who are likely to be visual-spatial learners often display the following tendencies : they remember what they see but forget what they hear; they have vivid imaginations; they can visualise objects from multiple perspectives, and they enjoy solving puzzles and mazes. These are children who would rather spend the day with a new box of Lego than do nearly anything else in the world. Kids who can get so absorbed in creative play, they lose all sense of time. Often labelled unorganised, unfocused, poor spellers or worse, visual-spatial learners can be equal parts pleasure and frustration to parent.Contents
