Some students are visual learners. If the teacher introduces a new concept, they will grasp it better if it is demonstrated through a physical model or shown diagrams illustrating the content. I propose the integration of visual aids in class like charts, graphs, drawings and models for visual learners to be tagged along during lessons. Teaching ages are usually used as am afterthought but view form am integral part of the learning process.

To be honest, learning aids are an integral part of learning especially for younger children. That's not to say that these resources aren't helpful for us adults. For me, their use is very important because it enables the person to visualise the topic at hand. For instance:
- Charts. A teacher can use charts for statistics or maybe percentages.
- Graphs. This is also for statistics as well.
- Drawings. For younger children, drawings are a good way of learning about a new word. If they can visualise it, they are better able tp grasp its meaning.
- Models. This can also be kinaesthetic and help those children who are more apt to learn that way.
