 List your 3 biggest takeaways from the readings. 

    First, learning styles if we study the learning styles, it will make learning fun and engaging. I found out that different people learn differently according to the movie visual, Auditory, reading, and writing, and Kinesthetic (VARK) it can help people find out what type of learners they are, and then we can work from that. I also found out that students have a dominant modality, but some prefer other modalities when they learn. This is an important lesson for us teachers, so we can try to understand our students and try to meet their needs.

    The second takeaway is using the three phases of the learning process, which are before training, where you activate prior knowledge, or something similar to the first phase. The first phase has to do with reminding the person of the skill they learned before. For example, if you are teaching them how to plant seeds, you will try to remind them of what they learned from their parents. The second phase, which is during training, involves this type of learning that activates measurable learning objectives that we can measure or see the result. For example, they have already planted the seed, and you just see if it is correct or not. The last or third phase has to do with participants applying the new skills and the knowledge of what they have learned. For example, they then use the skills learned and share them with their classmates.

    All kids learn differently, and we need to understand that this is how students learn. we should be able to find out each student's learning style so we can try to reach them or be able to teach close to their learning styles. Learning is very important to students because it either motivates or discourages students to learn or quit learning.
