Spelling, Sticks, Stones, Shaving Cream, Boots, Play-Doh, and Crossbows


The first installment of tactile-kinesthetic spelling starts with Lucas' Andy Goldsworthy-esque arrangement above. 


What does tactile-kinesthetic mean? Tactile refers to touch, so tactile learners need to feel and move things with their fingers and hands. Soren arranges a range of weaponry and household objects to spell his words.





Kinesthetic refers to movement, so kinesthetic learners need to interact with their bodies, instead of simply listening (auditory), and/or watching (visual). As Frenya's finger reveals words in shaving cream, she strengthens her understanding of consonant/vowel combinations.
