different learning styles

Understanding learning styles

The article Understanding learning styles talks about different ways that people can learn about a subject. There are three different ways of learning. There’s the kinesthetic style witch I think I am. There’s also the Auditory learners who often talk to themselves. And last but not least there is the visual learners who often use specific words in their speech’s. I read about all the learning styles that are in this article. I could tell what type of learner someone is by watching the way that they do their work or even study their work.

            I think that I am a kinesthetic learner because I like to work with hands on activities and build things. The fastest way that I could learn something is really taking the time to study it or to do it. Most of the time I like to do things and pick up on how to do it and try to teach others if they want to know how to do something.  I like to work on things like bicycles or build things in carpentry. Last year I learned how to build little shelves and coat hangers. I built one of each and took them home last year.

            I know that I am a kinesthetic learner because the only way I could learn something and remember it is by doing it myself and understanding what I am doing. I also know because I could really relate to the kinesthetic section of this article that I read. I like to stay busy and keep my hands busy and usually like to try and get things done as soon as possible. I like mechanics a lot and want to be a mechanic. I either want to go into diesel mechanics or marine mechanics for a career. 

            Knowing that I am a kinesthetic learner can help me be successful because I know what I have to do to really learn about something. I could use those things that help me learn faster to my advantage. Building something in carpentry is a lot more interesting to me then ELA. My hands are always moving and busy most of the day. I also really want to further my carpentry skills.

            I think that this article is really cool and gives a lot of different information about different types of learners. Also I think that if you really read the article and think about yourself that it kind of helps you understand what type of learner you are. I think that this article helped me understand what type of learner I was. When I read the kinesthetic section of the article I started thinking about my self how I could relate to the section that I was reading. That’s basically all I have to say about this article. I think that this article is good and really goes into detail on how there is different learners and different ways of learning. This will help people understand what type of learner they might be.

i can't even..

Today I am going to talk to you about my week. My week has felt like its going by fast. I am also going to talk to you about the online class that I just started this week. I’m also going to talk about my weekend plans. That what I am going to talk about today.

            My week has felt like its been going by fast because I have been trying to stay busy and help around the house as much as possible. I helped my sister rearrange the house and clean out the whole house. I also helped her clean around the house a little bit. I think that’s why my week has gone by so fast is because it took a couple of day to do that.

            I just started a online class for EEC and our instructor is Michael stacks. Michael was a math teacher here on the island a few years ago. I feel that I might do poor with this class because it is online and I don’t get online that much. I also barely get on y laptop that much when were aren’t in school. But then again I think that I might also like the class.

            This weekend I want to try an go out reindeer hunting and hopefully get one. If I do get one it will be my first reindeer. I also want o go and walk on the beach just because I am awesome and feel like to walk on the beach. Then after all that I want to get time to rearrange my room so I couyld fit a recliner in it and have my own chair. Those are my weekend plans.

            This is all that I wanted to talk about today. I hope that you enjoyed my blog and story about my plans. I also want to tell you that this is one of the rare times that I’m on laptop at home just because I need to get it done before the weekend. Enjoy the weekend and don’t sleep in to late.

3rd week of school.

Today I’m going to talk about the third week of school. I’m also going to talk about how school is going and what I think about school so far. I’m also going to talk to you about my Russian class because I think that Russian is awesome! Those are the few things that I’m going to talk to you about today.

So we are in the third week of school and we haven’t really had a full week of school yet. I think we have but not everyone does because we were dismissed a half hour early last week Friday due to power. I’m enjoying the school year already! It’s good to see everyone again and get back into going to the gym. The school year is the time that I get to go to the gym and get into shape and be healthy. During the summer I usually am lazy and don’t want to do much because I work youth hire and only get the weekends off.

School for me is going well so far and I like the schedule. There isn’t as much kids here as there was last year because a lot of kids left and went to school somewhere else like galena or Mt. Edgecumbe. I’m also the only boy in my class and the oldest boy in the school. Like a boss!!! We got a new teacher for math and he also teaches performing arts and music class. His name is Mr. Freeman and he’s a pretty cool guy and is funny at times.

This year is my first time taking Russian class. I’ve always wanted to try learning a new language but I didn’t think that I would enjoy it as much as I am. Our first day of Russian was alright and after the next few days went n=y I was really starting to get into it. Now I just wanna know it all and have a full on conversation with someone. I swear if I learn almost everthing I can I would think that I’m all that with a bag of chips! Lol just playing.

That’s all that I have for this blog. Its been a good week and I hope that the school year just gets better and better every week. Its gunna be a fun school year! Lol right now we are in class working on things that we need to get done and listening to “lets get it started” by black eye peas. It’s a pretty good song and very helpful. I like to listen to music when I’m working or doing something.

My summer...

Today I am going to talk to you guys about my summer.  This summer I worked for fish and wildlife. Also I’m going to talk to you about the couple weeks off I had before school started.  Then I am going to talk about the first week of school. That’s what I’m going to talk about today.

This summer I applied for a job with the Youth Conservation Corps. I started my first couple weeks of work down in Homer. We started work by learning about some of the things that we would be doing. We also had to get our CPR certificate. I enjoyed my time in homer and really liked the people there.

My last two weeks of work were here on the island. We finished the last week of work here and I stayed while everyone else that I worked with got on the plane and left. I kinda just sat around and didn’t do anything the couple weeks that I had off before school. I played a lot of games and slept a lot. That’s what I did with my two weeks off.

Our first week of school started with registering on Monday August 24^th. Then we actually started school the day. This year I am taking Russian class and I think its pretty fun. I thought that it’d be hard to learn another language but its not as hard as I thought it’d be. My other favorite class is EEC. I don’t even know why but I like that class for some odd reason.

That’s all that I have to talk about today and I hope that you enjoyed my blog. Now I am going to go back to working on my AKCIS thing that I was supposed to be working this hour. Its great to be back in school again!
