Syllabus For Understanding Learning Styles & The Multisensory Classroom

I have done extensive research on finding the best resources written by teachers who have tried the multi-sensory method and included them in this in-service. There is very little if any of "my opinions" in the information that was gathered.  Instead I have relied on your fellow teacher's and professor's experiences and brought them all together to help you better understand the importance of a multi-sensory classroom.        The parts of this in-service that involve myself or my family is the biography and our story. I felt our story was a necessary part because I don't believe most people can grasp the frustrations that families have when they don't have their child's teacher as their ally. Our story helps you develop the whole picture of why we need our teacher's help in educating our children.      Understanding Learning Styles & The Multi-sensory Classroom   Teaching educators the importance of a multi-sensory classroom by offering a self paced on-line in-service to understanding learning styles and multiple intelligences and learning how to apply these concepts within their own classrooms.                                            This in-service is designed to help you identify learning styles and develop changes to meet multiple intelligences within your classroom.
