Every child matters. So
does his needs and expectations. To recognise every student of the class as
auditory, visual or kinaesthetic is very important for a teacher. It not only enables
her to teach the students in an appropriate manner but also helps the students
gain more understanding without any struggle.
I used a Kinaesthetic
activity in my maths lesson. I asked them to cut two similar triangles of any
type. They were supposed to prove that the sum of angles in a triangle is
always equal to 180 degrees. They cut the angles of one of the two triangles
and tries to put them together. The three angles when put together made a
straight line having straight angle (180 degrees). Students tried the activity
with different triangles and proved the sum through small practical.
I personally felt that
students learnt more and figured out ways to present their results in an innovative
manner. Overall it was enjoyable activity for all of the students.
