VIDEOS ~ Show Me You Understand What You Read (vids 1, 2 & 3)

After failing a test on a book he read, the teacher goes over with the student the missed questions. When the student was asked why he missed questions such as the difference between Mercury's orbit and Neptune's, he didn't know why he couldn't recall that information for the test.

When the student was asked to show the difference between the two planets' orbits, he did it easily.

Kinesthetic, or active, learners can't always get up during a written test, but they can be taught how to see movement in their mind.

This is what Miguel did during the next book he read, and scored a 100%! He began the year basically reading at a 3rd grade level, and as the video shows, is now capable of achieving perfection at the 5th grade level.

The lady in holding "the sun" is Ms. Ammal, who comes in to help Miguel read....and also teach us Arabic!
