WHAT IS KINESTHETIC?

• Kinesthetic is one of the types of intelligences. It can be described as the action that occurs

as students/people do physical activities. It involves the body movement control,

manual dexterity, physical agility and balance; eye and body coordination, touching, feeling, holding, doing, practical hands-on experiences.

CHARACTERISTICS

Kinesthetic learners were sometimes called "hyperactive" as children.

They usually do well as performers: athletes, actors, or dancers.

Kinesthetic learners work well with their hands. They can do activities such as sculpting, art, or working with different tools.

Kinesthetic learners are well coordinated and have a strong sense of body movement.

• Bring a rubber band to class and wrap and unwrap it around your hand.

• When studying, bounce a tennis ball against the wall or floor when you're answering questions.

• Underline, highlight or make notes while you read.

• Bounce a leg up and down to release some of the energy.

SOME OF CHARACTERISTICS

• Move around a lot• Like to touch people they’re talking to• Tap their pencil or foot while doing homework• Are considered hyperactive• Move their hands when they talk• Lie on the floor or bed when studying

• Great hand-eye coordination • Quick reactions • Good at sports • Like to solve problems by physically working

through them• Like to try new things• Are coordinated and agile

• The Physical (Bodily-Kinesthetic) Learning Style

Dancers, actors, athletes, sporty people,

soldiers, fire-fighters…
