Many different learning styles are present within a classroom, and every child has different needs. These learning styles are influenced by their unique brains and experiences that directly impact how they understand information. Today, we discuss using whiteboards as visual aids for visual learners.
It is essential for teachers to understand the learning styles of their students. The four primary learning styles are visual, auditory, kinesthetic, or tractive. Different types of learners have different strengths and preferences. So how do you work with Visual Learners in your classroom?
Visual learning is often referred to as the spartan learning style, which requires learners to see what they're expected to know. Visual learners can remember 75% of what they see or read, allowing them to succeed when processing written-down information.
Technology has become integrated into everyday life in the 21st century, especially within our education system. The advent of technology has somewhat overshadowed traditional classroom instruction, but there are still some mainstays of the past that remain for a reason. One of classroom tools is traditional whiteboards for the classroom. There are many reasons why whiteboards should be present in a classroom, especially with the wide arrange of benefits that come with their use.
The use of traditional whiteboards allows Vertical Learning to be accomplished in the classroom. “Vertical learning or vertical development is the evolution over the course of your lifetime of stages of consciousness. It is the ability to hold more and more complexity, to hold increasingly more perspective in your awareness.” (Dorian Akin)

Children from ages 2-4 are in a critical stage for accelerated growth and development. Providing a space where they can build a slew of cognitive and physical skills can set them up for learning success in grade school and beyond. In fact, encouraging movement and exploration with vertical learning zones can ensure normal brain development and reduce chances of developing Senoristasis. (1, 2)
Art therapy is beneficial for both adults and kids. Regular therapy involves verbal communication and expression, while art therapy involves visual communication and expression. It can be hard to find the right words to express your emotions, especially when trauma is involved. But expressing how you feel is crucial for feeling understood, validated and a sense of belonging.
An art therapist simply asks: "what do your feelings look like?" The next step is to draw connections between the drawing and what the patient thinks and feels. Anyone can practice art therapy with the right tools.
