the way I learn

I am an Intrapersonal Learner
       
Your mantra: To thy own self be true.
       
Intrapersonal intelligence has been said to be the road to achievement, learning, and personal satisfaction. You are connected to who you are and how you feel, and you know your own limits and abilities. You often set goals for yourself, self-manage, and reflect on results.
Those with interpersonal intelligence do well in careers where self-management is important, such as being a writer, a teacher, a counselor, a police officer, or a pilot.
I agree that im an intrapersonal learner. J ust the other night i set a goal for myself.so in that way im an intrapersonal.
       

Tips for the way you learn:

       
  • Study alone in a comfortable yet quiet environment.
  • Set goals for yourself, and monitor your progress regularly.
  • Reflect on what you have learned, and think through new material.
  • Create a connection between new material and subjects you already know, and gain understanding by finding their similarities.
   



I am a Naturalistic Learner

            
Your mantra: Let's investigate the natural world.
       
Naturalistic learners often understand the patterns of living things, and they apply scientific reasoning to the world. You recognize (and can classify) different types of plants or animals. You also empathize with animals. Some well-known careers for those with naturalistic intelligence are farmer, naturalist, animal behaviorist, and scientist. 
I agree on this one two, I mean i live in the forest and have goats and chickens. so definitely an naturalistic type.
       

Tips for the way you learn:

       
  • Observe and record data.
  • Create a "living system" for the material you are trying to learn. Imagine the new material as an ecosystem or a pattern for you to figure out.
  • Write about nature, daily life, or people as a topic so you become engaged in your assignment.
   
   

I am a Visual-Spatial Learner

       
Your mantra: What you see is what you get.
       
Visual-spatial intelligence allows you to see and modify things in your mind. With an understanding of the visual world and its relation to physical items, you are good at solving spatial problems, designing, and doing crafts. Interior designers have remarkable spatial abilities, as do painters.
   I definetly am an visual spectical learner. I always "modify" things in my mind.    

Tips for the way you learn:

       
  • Use art projects to create representations of the content you are learning.
  • Draw related images next to your notes (along with arrows between ideas) to create connection and reference points.
  • Organize with color. Use different-colored highlighters, paper, index cards, folders, or tabs to create a visual system for finding things and grouping topics.
  • Visualize your topic. When you are learning something new, imagine what it looks like.

The Santa Cruz Fiasco

 “Sarah. Sarah.” where was she “Sarah.” I am at the santa cruz beach boardwalk on a hot summer day, with my friends. “Riley, we’ve been searching for hours, we're never gonna find her!" ”“Oh yes we will Hailey, we have to.” now we have lost a person, I always lose stuff. My friend Sarah was very hard to spot because she was small (smaller than me). She had dark brown hair about to her shoulders. “I wish we had lost you Riley, you’d be easier to find.” Yah” My friend Riley was tall and had flowing almost iridescent hair. “Do you think we should go on another ride for a break?” “Sure Riley” “Lets go on the big dipper” “Okay” we went to the big dipper, and as usual it had an enormous line. It seemed to take forever! we got on the ride, and tried to have a conversation: “Riiiiiiiley, i feel bad not having Sarah here.” “Meeeeeee too. But we don’tttttt, so just enjoy the rideeeeee.” So we did just enjoy the ride(all the extended letters were for when there was a drop in ride or something.) Luckily we had went to a photo booth and had gotten pictures, so we used the picture that you could see her in. “Have you seen this girl?” “Excuse me sir, have you seen this girl?” “NO” We went on another ride because we'd spent most of our time worrying about Sarah. We went on one of those haunted house rides and I swear I saw sarah. “Hey Riley, we should of went on a ride that Sarah would have liked, so we might see her.” “Yeah you're right, but I think that sarah likes scarrrrrry rides” Riley said sarcastically. We were about to give up because we knew that no matter what that she would find the leaders if we didn't find her. We were at the dippin dots stand, ”I’ll have cookie dough ,and she’ll have mint chip” “here you go” “Have you seen this girl?” i said “Yes, she ordered a while ago and sat on that bench waiting” “For her fiends or something, if I were her I would not like those friends after they ditched me” “She thinks ‘her friends ditched her? Well then all right” “Sarah? Oh my god it is you! where have you been, you said you’d wait for us outside-” “No I did not, I said i’d wait at the dippin dots stand dummies! But, you were too busy to listen.” “you told the dippin dots stand person that we ditched you, really?”me and riley said together “Sorry guys I Thought you ditched” “I know , we're not mad at you.” “we should get going, to meet up with the camp leaders” I said so we meet up with the leaders and went back to camp ,and went swimming (I love swimming!!!). then we went home. The next day, this is what was being said: “yesterday I got lost!!!!, thanks to Riley and Hailey.” “No we did not lose you, you did not tell us where to find you” “whatever” So after that we started laughing hysterically and had a great summer, and I didn't lose another person since, accept myself, but that is another story to to tell, and that is for another time.
