Does your child:
- Remember details from places visited, even from years ago?
- Remember details from movies, even if they missed the plot
- Learn best when they see and experience information?
If this fits, your child may be a right-brained learner. Right-brained learners are creative, have great visual memories, but often struggle with reading comprehension and wordy tests. The 10th Grade FCAT is a nightmarke for the right-brained learner.
Parents often pursue an IEP (Individualized Education Plan) or 504 Plan that provide accommodations and either can help.
The challenge is that right-brained learners often struggle with 2, 3 or even 5 of the following:
- Sight word vocabulary -- words like why, what, when, what is the best, compare and contrast --- words that are peppered throughout the 10th Grade FCAT
- Recognizing words they have previously learned
- Skipping words and lines when reading
- Having difficulty paying attention, especially for long periods of time
- Test anxiety
The 10th Grade FCAT has taken on a life of its own. I am not a fan of 10th Grade FCAT Programs that teach to the test or 10th Grade FCAT Help that focuses on "Pass this test or else".
At 3D Learner, we provide a 10th grade FCAT Program that is a right-brained program for right-brained learners -- that identify and address the relevant issues.
