Look around your classroom. Do you see students sitting at desks? Are teachers writing on a board and giving
lectures? At Southern Cross School, near the famous Kruger National Park in South Mrica, things are different.
Here, nature is the classroom.

Page 12
 TIẾNG ANH 10

Both the park and the school are home to wild animals such as
giraffes, impalas, and warthogs. Students at the school study the same
subjects as other students in South Mrica. But at Southern Cross, the staff
and students go out into the wild to learn.
In one lesson, students apply the principles
of mathematics to the study of local wildlife. Younger students count how many kinds of
animals drank at the nearby water troughs during the night. Older students measure the
amount of water the animals drank, and calculate how much water the animals will need
over weeks or months.
In language classes, a common topic is conservation. In one recent debate, students discussed an important
question: should people give water to wild animals during a drought? Another project might consist of finding out
how an animal died.
The director of the school is Ant de Boer. His aim is for students to learn the importance of caring for the
environment. De Boer says, “When they leave school, we want them to be champions of the natural
environment.” As the school motto says, Southern Cross aims to be a “School for the Planet.”

If you find yourself learn better by making notes during the lecture, or when the teacher uses a new word, you
want to see it written immediately, then you are very likely to be a more visual learner. You prefer to see the
written words. You learn by reading and writing. Visual learners often think in pictures. If you find a particular
task or text difficult, look for sources that will suit your learning style, e.g. sources with illustrations, charts,
tables, or videos.
If you prefer recording the lecture and listening again to taking notes, or you memorize something by
repeating it aloud instead of writing it out several times, you are probably a more auditory learner. You prefer to
learn by listening and speaking. Auditory learners often learn best from lectures, discussions, by reading aloud,
and by listening to audio material.
However, it is probably that you, like most people, learn through a mixture of styles. Sometimes you may
prefer to learn by reading, at other time by listening. Ask yourself which is the best style for the particular task
you are doing.
Question 1: Which of the following is probably NOT preferred by a visual learner?
A. reading aloud B. sources with illustrations
