Visual
Visual learners learn best by seeing; and visual learners master reading in a different manner from children with other learning styles. Try these strategies with your visual learner:
Read to your children as often as possible. Put your finger under the word you are reading, so that they see the connection between the written word and the word you are saying. Have them do the same when they are ready.
Encourage your child to memorize stories or books with repetitious phrases.
Promote awareness of printed words in the neighborhood such as stop signs, road signs, street names, names of stores, names on boxes and cans in the grocery store.
Create books with photographs of their favorite people and pets, with the name written under each picture. You can also cut pictures of objects out of magazines and write the names of the objects under the pictures.

Auditory
Auditory learners transfer information into memory through listening. Try these strategies with your auditory learner:
Use the phonetic approach to reading instruction; decoding is most important.
Rhyming word games help auditory learners internalize new information so use them whenever possible.
Read aloud to your child when helping her study; use video and audiotapes, books on tape, melodies, rhythms and beats to reinforce learning.
While studying, ask your child to paraphrase questions and answer questions orally.
He or she should try to repeat facts aloud with eyes closed and discuss important details in her or his own words.
Use tape recorders to record and play back lessons.
Always try to give directions verbally, paraphrase key information and provide students a quiet place to do homework.

Kinesthetic / Tactile
Kinesthetic learning involves physical experience – touching… feeling… holding… Tactile learners are most successful doing practical hands-on activities. Try these strategies with your kinesthetic / tactile learner:
Have your child write letters and words in modeling clay or manipulate felt letters on a letter board.
Refrigerator magnets are fun and can be a valuable tool.
Cut large-print reading pages into puzzles for reassembly.
Hide and seek letter and word games like “Memory” are helpful and can be adapted for more active kids (i.e. letter / word cards can be hidden throughout a room and assembled into sentences).
Extra large floor puzzles are another great way for active learners to get involved in reading and learning.
