0 comments, some children have difficulty with reading comprehension. There may be several reasons that they have difficulty, but one of the main causes of the problems reading comprehension is that students create not as striking images they read.In my practice of educational therapy, I often listen to students to read. Some students have difficulty with recognition of the word, but many do not. When your child has little or no difficulty poll on the words in the passage, but he still has difficulty understanding the problem may be that he or it is not clever with imaging visuelle.Et even if your child has trouble survey words, it may still have trouble with understanding as well.Researchers noticed that students are not adept at making images in their mind of equipment that they hear or read as they were decades ago. Perhaps the explosion of Visual images all around us has much to do with that. Children are "fed" Visual images of television, movies, magazines and billboards. They may not receive as much practical to generate their own images.Visualization is used by the athletes and artists as an effective tool for positive results. Research has shown that the athletes who practice their sport only "field" do not reach the same levels of success such as those which, in addition to practise "field" also practise their sport "in their minds."The brain is very clever use of Visual information. Indeed, most region of the brain is dedicated to the vision that sens.Le brain to another is also very well to the use of spatial information. These capabilities have get us through the millennia as a survival mechanism. We are highly visual and spatial thinkers.The "anchor visualizations" strategy teaches students to create Visual images, then to "anchor" to a specific location in the room. What's so amazing about this technique is that students use both innate ability, vision and spatial understanding and strategy can be used when the students are involved in discussions in independent to significantly increase capacity students viewing and reading comprehension class, conferences, or read. Behold how the technique "anchor visualizations" works: Students will listen or read, they use their visualization capability to create "pictures" (I are called "mind movies"), information. These images should include rich details more vivid images because remember student Better.the directs his or her attention to a specific location in the room, for example, the door, Blackboard or on-site wall.The image became an anchor location visualizations created or to discuss the contents of a story or manual reading. The spot is Visual and associated parts of history must be remembered.To recall a storage place is important in history, were simply the student to look at the anchor spatial information. Applying the technique of "anchor visualizations" Since soon it will be Halloween, apply this technique to the story, "Little Red Riding Hood" Although this is a story at the elementary level, the technique works for any information, any level sophistication.The history begins as the small red chaperone was invited by his mother to take some food to her grandmother, who loves the little red chaperone so she gave her a beautiful cape red with a hood. This part of the story, a student can choose a place in the room, say that the television set. While discussing or reading this part of history, have your child watches TV and create a vivid image of a little girl. Ask questions such as: how old is it, what color is her hair, how long is Cape Town, she did her hood on his head or not, what color are his eyes, that it will proceed to food, in what form is the container... etc. Issues is to teach your child create images instructions.to part of history, have your child to choose another location, such as the table, as you read or discuss in the next section of the history and encourage your child to make images of issues for the information to come to life.In our example, this technique has been applied to a history of elementary, primarily because the story of the little Red Riding Hood is well connue.Mais, as I mentioned, it works also for content of middle and high school. Used this approach to teach the children on DNA, history of Romeo and Juliet and other secondary equipment line. This is an approach that works on any content, for students of all ages, because it uses the concepts of locations in space combined with Visual input, Visual imagery and language, which makes it a multi-sensory technique. And multi-sensory techniques work better because they deliver more a part of the brain.What are the characteristics of "vivid images"?Use your questioning to help your child create memorable images.That is what makes memorable images?First - images should stimulate emotions (think of a man holding a soft child crying) .a another quality required is that the images are unusual (try a blue dog) .encourager your child to include other aspects of memorable Imaging: colour, detail and especially for children of all ages — is the raw image! Yes, I said gross (think a sandwich assessment) .the gross factor is very powerful for the memory!Mr. Kari Miller is Director of Miller education excellence an educational centre of Los Angeles.Sa collection informative and inspirational articles, "Strategies for success for students special needs such as the ADD, ADHD, Autism" therapy and learning disabilities can be downloaded here stop is challenging two broadcasts educational blogtalk radio host: Special Kid School Talk and the revolution of education contact Mr. Miller: website:
