19 This is another layer of learning styles This is all about how you best learn and remember what you have learned. 7/11/200919iTeenChallenge.org T506.07

20  Remembering has to do with how we perceive something with one or more of our 5 senses and how those senses help us to understand and remember that experience or information. 7/11/200920iTeenChallenge.org T506.07
