Kinesthetic Symbols

Kinesthetic Symbols

Learning strategy

Optional Step:

Symbols are used as a response to answer questions by a teacher.

For example if students are learning differents steps in solving a problem, the teacher can get student feedback with a "thumbs up" for comprehension or a "thumbs down" for misunderstanding.

Kinesthetic Symbols

2. Participants practice the symbols.

Kinesthetic Symbols

We will introduce the steps to create Kinesthetic Symbols to be used for associating learning content.

Kinesthetic Symbols

Example:

  • 1. Students stand and use their body to form the letter "C" for cell using their body.
  • 2. Students stand and use their body to form the letter "T" for tissue.
  • 3. Students stand and use their body to form the letter "O" for organs.

1. Students create kinesthetic symbols for the content.

The best approach to get the most out of Kinesthetic symbols is for participants in the group use larger muscle groups of the body. Ideally participants would stand rather than sit.
