Reflection  Instruction Strategies       When creating this lesson, one of my main goals was being able to incorporate different learning styles. The kinesthetic learning style is incorporated in the anticipatory step and in the graphic organizers. Kinesthetic learning focuses on tactile learning and being able to physically move things around or organize materials (Houghton University, n.d.). In the anticipatory step, students will be able to manipulate and move the objects around. For visual learners, they are able to use graphic organizers and take notes. For auditory learners, they will be able to participate in discussions and listen to the reading.           For readiness, I know that this is a standard that students are continuing to work on by finding the main idea.

For example, if they have learned in the past by hearing stories from their families or friends, they may prefer auditory learning. If they had any delays in their development, they may enjoy tactile learning where they are able...
