In class we had to complete many different test to find out which profile we were. This was to help us learn more about ourselves and our teachers can learn more about our learning strengths and weaknesses. We learnt about which body parts were dominant and if we were a logic or a gestalt dominant learner. I turned out to be a logic dominant learner and a profile E. We all got to read about our profiles and learn more about ourselves. In the class we had a variety of profiles.
I am a verbal learner and I must talk about what is being taught in class in order to absorb it. I learn best when analysing and communicating through verbal or written, information. I think that this is true because I have seen this in class many times. It has proved right because I like taking part in discussions in class. The analysing is proved when I like to look over information again and again. This is so that I understand the information and remember it correctly.
I need to explore emotions and movement a little more than I do now. Drama is encouraging lots of emotions and movement which I find very fun and amusing. A balance of art and music skills will be help lots in opening the gestalt part of my brain. This with help me to learn much better and make me more relaxed. In class I should pay more attention to my gut instincts and trust my intuition. Activities that can sometimes help with feeling or being stressed in class can be things like lazy 8's.
The strategies that will help me in my learning are things like brainstorming my ideas on paper. I also be part of a group that has the freedom to talk to learn.We had groups for our literature circles that we discussed are work. I think that I would like my teachers to let us work in groups . In these groups we could discussed what we were learning that day. I would like my teacher to know that I should sit further back in the class where I can write and talk without disturbing others.
I was very interested in how we found out about are learning profile at first. It was a fun way to find out about myself in class. The profiles were a great way to get to know how to improve or help yourself with your learning. Teachers can now help us on the things we need to improve on. When I first read my profile in class I was very surprised. Many traits I recognise, they were just like my traits. Even when I got home and read the profile to my family they could see that it was all like me!
