Preschoolers with a visual learning style prefer to see things. They understand information faster if it is presented in a visual form: written, displayed, enacted or otherwise visualized. The preschool of such a child should offer visually stimulating and interesting walls, classroom equipment and materials; its rooms need to be neat and organized, and teaching must be reinforced by bulletin boards, posters and charts.
Children with an auditory learning styles learn first and best through listening to music, stories or instructions. Encourage such children to work in pairs or small groups rather than individually or in large groups. Teaching for preschoolers with the auditory learning style should employ group discussions, storytelling and other oral teaching methods.
The kinesthetic learning styles is not as popular as visual or auditory styles. Kinesthetic learners can be engaged through hands-on activities, such as drawing, building or being physically active with learning. They need to manipulate objects rather than see or hear them.
The tactile learning style is similar to the kinesthetic style. However, tactile learners prefer smaller-scale movements to larger-scale ones, as opposed to kinesthetic learners. They should be taught and encouraged handwriting and need to be given a chance to work with small blocks and building sets and to solve puzzles.
