It is a wonderful day today. Because I get to talk to you, I always love talking to you on the podcast. So thankful for you for being here. Now I am so excited to dive into today’s topic of learning styles, it’s going to be such a great topic. And we’re going to learn how to identify them, how it can inform our instruction. And I love that we get to hear about this from a perspective of a homeschool parent because they feel like all of us can learn from this, we can learn how we can do it, whether we’re a teacher in a classroom, or you know, we’re a parent, and we are working with our own children, whether we homeschool them, or we just you know, we have our own kids, we send them to school and we teach or whatever our situation is we’re all working with children. And we can all find different ways to identify their learning styles and inform and just become more aware of the ways we teach. And even if you know the learning styles already, this will be a great way to kind of review it and maybe see it from a different perspective. And I’m so excited to have Ritchie on the show today. She is a homeschool mom, like I mentioned. And she is actually the host of the homeschool moms Summit, which I was invited to present and actually to sponsor the event. And I’m very excited to be part of it. And we are going to have some fun things in store for all of the attendees of the event. So if you’re there, you’ll get to hear about those. If you are a homeschool mom or your parent who supplements education at home, I highly recommend attending this event, it’s free. So I’ll put the link in the show notes. I will be presenting about owning your wins and how to teach social emotional learning both topics that I just love talking about. There are lots of other amazing presenters too. So don’t miss out on this opportunity. Now also, before we start, I also wanted to tease a little bit that we have a big sale coming up. If you’re listening to this live on January 13 2023. We have something big coming on January 18. And that’s all I’m going to say because a lot of people might be listening to this later. But if you’re listening live, definitely stay tuned to your email if you’re on our email list. And we’ve got something really big to celebrate that we have added 731 resources that so many resources we added in 2022. We’re very proud and excited about that. And part of my team, they’ve worked so hard over the last year. Okay, so again, today we’ll be talking about learning styles. I’m going to introduce Richie to you now so you can kind of get to know her a little bit before we dive into this conversation. So here is a little bit about her. So she is a homeschool mom of three kiddos Daniel who’s 12 Zoey who’s 11 and scout who’s four. She’s like a homeschool version of a Starbucks coffee drink a free reign Charlotte Mason inspired unschool life learner with a shot of tech. She’s a single mom too, so she knows how to prioritize tasks with a purpose and really manage the things that need to be done while also saving time for the fun stuff which includes one on one quality time with her children. She’s the owner and creator of homeschooling humor, where she shares these kinds of learning tips along with many other goodies. Their homeschool and humor is a place for homeschool moms to go to for resources and information about all things homeschool and she keeps it real over there. She is a serial submitter her fancy way of saying that she’s a hostess when she creates and hosts homeschool moms summits like the one I mentioned that we’re doing in January that I’m heard I’m so excited. And you can usually catch when the next SEM is by going to her site yet homeschool moms summits.com. So even if you’re listening to this after the January one we mentioned is over go to that URL and you should be able to find the current Summit. She is a devoted Christian and has given her life and her kids lives to Christ. She follows God’s direction for her life and he absolutely leads the way for her. In fact, that’s her number one priority this year. Being as obedient as possible. No matter how crazy or unexplainable the instruction may be. You can usually find her at homeschool and humor tribe Facebook group, as well as on her YouTube channel, her Facebook page and Instagram. And every now and again. She’ll make a presence on Pinterest and Twitter too, though she’s definitely loving that Tik Tok nowadays so check that out if you’re into that not dancing yet still entertaining short videos. Now let’s get to this interview so we can learn about learning styles and how you can discover them with the children you teach and use them to inform your instruction. Let’s go Hey, everybody, I’m so excited to have Richie sores here with me today for our podcast interview all about learning styles. Richie Can you introduce yourself to our listeners?

Richie

Sure. Hey guys, I am Richie source, the owner and creator of homeschool and humor and homeschool moms summits, and I’m so happy to be here. Thank you for letting me join you on this podcast. I’m a homeschool mom of three kiddos. Daniel is 12 Though he’s 11 and scouts for our relate our homeschool a lot like a homeschool version of a Starbucks coffee drink. So we’re a free range Charlotte Mason unschool life learner with the shot of tech. So that’s how I describe our homeschool.

Kelsey

I love how you describe it. I can like perfectly picture it.

Richie

Yeah, so it’s kind of a fun way to describe the truck eclectic. So I’m also a single mom to going on year to now. So I know how to prioritize tasks with purpose behind them and read the satisfaction of checking off the lists, while also saving time for the fun stuff, which is like the one on one quality time with my kids, which I think is just so important. And like I said, I’m also the owner and creator of homeschool on humor, where I share our productivity kinds of learning tips along with many other kinds of intriguing topics over there. Homeschooling humor is a place for homeschool moms to go to for resources and information just about all things homeschool, so, and I like to keep things real over there. And that’s why it’s named homeschool and humor. On top of the homeschool and humor blog. I’m starting a new podcast and a site called homeschool blogger talk. Oh, I’m so yeah. I’ll have to have you on my show. Oh, my

Kelsey

love to be on your show. And I can’t wait to listen. Oh, great.

Richie

It’s a place for homeschool bloggers to find that disconnect that they might be feeling you know, is where they can level and scale up to that next step. Just through my event coordinations over the years because I’ve managed online summits and bundles and events for a few years now I’ve gotten a front row seat to homeschool bloggers in their business and I just love helping them which is why homeschool blogger talk is about to exist. Well actually kind of does minus the podcast part but it will in a matter of weeks. Well before I even started homeschooling I worked as quote unquote real job I guess you can say I worked out there on the world as a regional sales and marketing director for these multimillion dollar hotels like Marriott and luckiness and Wyndham’s Hilton’s, that kind of thing so alongside the sales and marketing part for those hotels also managed a huge conference center for eight years where people would, you know, throw huge events and reunions and weddings and you know, large things like that. So my skills with that actually kind of carried over to like the online sphere. And now I’m hosting summits virtually for homeschool moms. Which one’s coming up in January 23 called homeschool moms summit winter refresh edition. Oh, and I can’t and my about me part without mentioning I am a devoted Christian and have given my life and my kids lives to Christ and I follow God’s direction for my life as best as I can as he absolutely leads the way for me, kind of like a Jesus take the wheel style. So there he is, like my number one priority this year is just to be as obedient as possible. No matter how crazy or unexplainable the instruction may be just to you know, listen and just do it, which is kind of like where the homeschool summit fell into place too.

Kelsey

I love that I love how you you’ve kind of taken that leap of faith with the homeschool summons to write and you’re just like, you know, it’s all going to work out like

Richie

Honestly, it’s like God like a child saying hey, mama, mama. Mama, Mama, you know, and that’s what it feels like whenever I’m procrastinating or dragging my feet about doing something that I absolutely know, God is really wanting me to do. And that’s what happened with this summit too. I waited till the ultimate last minute to even start preparing it, but I knew I had to do it

Kelsey

sometimes, like, you know, that just happens. And you know, that just means that, okay, I’m doing this, we just know that it’s what we’re supposed to be doing. And we have that guidance. And you know, we’re just, we’re gonna make it. So I’m really glad that you are doing it. Because I’m excited to be a part of your homeschool moms Summit. It’s going to be a lot of fun.

Richie

Yes, I’m so excited that you’re with us, too. There’s a lot. There’s like 50 speakers, and they’re just going to be around at workshops. So it’s going to be super exciting. And I’m, I’m really happy that you joined us too. I can’t wait for everything to just like, let loose.

Kelsey

Yeah, me too. And speaking of so I was looking through your blog, because you mentioned all these things you do and you have your blog, and you have these summits and you I didn’t even know all your background about doing those events like you give us just such a thorough intro. I learned so much about you. I love it. So I was looking through your blog for topics that I think our listeners would love. And I came across learning styles. And we haven’t talked about this yet on the podcast. But I think they’re so important, too. So I thought it would be a great topic to talk about. So can you tell us though a bit about why you think learning styles are important to know if you’re teaching children?

Richie

Well, you know, if someone had told me about learning styles before I started year one of homeschooling it would have definitely helped my worry and stress levels that year. Because they were through the they were through the roof that first year homeschooling I’m not gonna lie. I was trying to teach things to my kids. And they just were not getting it that year, that whole year. And I was blaming the public school system that entire year for not teaching them anything. And they were understanding it. Well, actually, really, my son just wasn’t really understanding, like grasping some things are actually a lot of things that year, especially math. So had I known about learning styles, even just a little bit, I would have then known that there were other ways to teach my kids the ways that they learned best.

Kelsey

Yeah. So how did you discover your kids learning styles? And I think you mentioned in your blog post that you learned the hard

Richie

way? Yes, I did. So going back to my son, Daniel, when we started homeschooling that whole year, my whole first year, for some reason, he just could not understand regrouping and math just for the life of him like, and I was really, I mean, I tried to just teach him I think, even like, there were some days like, I don’t understand why you just don’t get it. You know, like it was my first year homeschooling and I just, I was just stressed, and I didn’t want to get behind and I, you know, felt like a failure. And I just didn’t know what I was doing wrong, or why couldn’t he just understand it. And then I ended up that year, just closing the book, and just saying, You know what, we’re just going to take a break, like it was summertime by then. And we’ll just pick this back up whenever we start school again. And so I did. So when I opened up the book back up a few months later, and I gave Daniel the same problem that he ended with, he literally just like, zipped right through it. And this is why because during that first year, we had all these cute little math manipulatives and I had all these cool clocks. You know, I had the the hundreds flat and the 10 rods, and we were making laminated houses and all those fun hands on kind of stuff, you know, and Daniel still wasn’t getting it. And so whenever we restarted that next year, I just gave him that sheet of paper. And he zipped right through it. And I just didn’t understand why. And it turns out, it’s because he doesn’t do well with all those math manipulatives you know, and I was thinking every kid does well with math, you know. And so Daniel started zipping right through it. And now right behind Daniel is Zoe. So I start giving her worksheets figure in if that was Daniels way, then it’s gonna be Zoe’s way. And she could not get it with the worksheets, like Daniel did. And sure enough, she was the one that liked the math manipulatives and so it was that really hard way to learn that the kids learn differently. That was a hard lesson to learn. But once it did, I really did just see just clarity and I saw things with a whole new light like a whole new set of eyes with my kids and how they learn and then how I can present that information to them to help them you know, understand the concepts and moving on from then on. It just became just a whole lot easier when I understood about learning styles and the way they understand the concepts I teach.

Kelsey

Yeah. And I love that because you learn by doing and you saw like for yourself like with your children with Daniel needing the worksheets rather than the manipulatives. And the Zoey needing the other way around, she needed those manipulatives. And as we learn as homeschool moms or as teachers in a classroom, all of the kids that we teach, learn differently. So it’s really eye opening when we kind of get to notice how each child learns. So when you learned that, what did you do after that, oh, we

Richie

became eclectic. We became that Starbucks drink, the homeschool version of that Starbucks drink. So I started really seeing curriculum with the new set of eyes. Like I said, I could determine if curriculum or resources were a good fit for my son and daughter at that point, you know, because once I understood the learning styles, everything kind of pieced together the gaps, the holes that I was missing that I didn’t know I was missing. But I was missing that first year, it all kind of came together once I learned the learning styles myself. So my son and daughter just depending on how they learn, and how the curriculum is set up to teach them the concepts is where and when I find found the resources in the curriculum, you know, to help them. So I begin seeing that I could actually customize their learning process. And then because of that, I can personalize their entire homeschool which they’re there in education. And it’s a really profound, just, it’s almost like an epiphany. It’s like a profound realization, when you have that power to personalize their entire homeschool, like, like their education and just completely customize it to how they learn best. Once you realize that, it’s more just like, I don’t know, it’s like almost an emotional moment. Because you realize, you can actually really make things better for your kids in a way that they understand. And it’s actually in a way that, you know, public schools, they can’t really take the time to customize things like that, you know, if you don’t understand something, unfortunately, you’ll just have to be left behind or get tutored because they have to move on. So with your homeschool, you can do things like that you can piece together curriculums so that it fits the learning styles of your kids, which is what I started to do. I started piecing together curriculums to round it out the best way that they learn, which is you know, I like to do YouTube videos for grammar instead of the worksheets. And then just basic worksheets for math with all those cutesy colors are super cool, interactive videos. So that’s what we started to do. We started to adapt our education, our school with how they learned and that made all the difference.

Kelsey

I love that because that’s one of the reasons I love homeschool, because you as you know, I mentioned we do it too. So I have an eight year old boy and a six year old girl and then a three year old boy which so mainly we’re working with our older too, but I love how we’re able to customize it like not only to their learning styles, but even their interests, like you know, we can do like my son is really into Pokemon, and we can do have him write about Pokemon or whatever. So it’s really fun. I love being able to customize their learning. So kind of on that mainly what we’re talking about today is the learning styles. So what are the three common learning styles that you focus on in your homeschool?

Richie

Well, there are a few different versions of learning styles out there whenever I was doing my own research, but I am a huge fan of the kiss method, which is keep it silly simple. Actually, I think it’s really keep it stupid, simple, but I cringe at that word, you know, stupid. So it’s now silly. So keep it or I guess it could be keep it simple, silly. So I use the kiss method. So I try to keep things really simple. So anyway, so focus on three instead of like four or five or six, or however many versions around out there. So the three ones are visual, auditory, and kinesthetic learning, which is hands on learning. Visual is more of a you have to see it in order to understand it. And then auditory is is kind of like a visual, but you can hear how it is to understand it. And then kinesthetic is hands on like the math manipulatives we were talking about. They learn better with the hands on activities. So now even though that there are three learning styles, your kids are going to have a little bit of each one so it’s not ever going to be solely a hands on learner like 100% and it’s not ever even going to be like just a little bit of visual and then 99% of hands on it’s not going to be like that. But even though there is is going to be one dominant learning style for your child, there’s going to be still a little bit of each one sprinkled in with your child, but there’s still going to be one dominant one. So whether it’s visual audio or hands on,

Kelsey

yeah, I love that you mentioned that it’s not ever there. 100% one style because as you know, kids, they don’t really fit into a box. Like ever, every child is unique. And especially for our teachers who are listening and they maybe have like 30 kids in their classroom, they can see that like, all their students learn differently. So when you’re homeschooling and you can really get to know your kids on such an even deeper level to are you enjoying this episode of the podcast?

So how do you use these learning styles to inform your choices in what you do when you teach your kids,

Richie

it’s pretty much the basis of my decision making now. Now that I know how they learn, it helps me know how to deliver this information to them. So I try to use curriculum that delivers alongside their styles and aligns with the way they learn. But you know, just like you said, with all the kids, not all curriculums are created equal either. So that’s where I start piecing together curriculum or where I’ve kind of pivot there. So you can look and find curriculum out there that aligns with the certain learning style, and a lot of them will tell you what learning style they’re aligned with. So if you start paying attention to that, you’ll start understanding which curriculum your child will, you know, be best using. Like I said, with the Math Worksheets, I know not to spend money on an online math curriculum, because my son thrives on those basic just simple worksheets. I mean, he requests them, he prefers to write out the problems and put pencil to paper, which is what I think how you should do math anyway. But I’m from the old school, knowing their learning styles saves me money, and definitely stress I’m not going like over and over the concepts again, like a deer did on year one. And I’m not going over the lessons thinking I’m just going cuckoo, thinking I’m a huge failure because my kids still doesn’t understand the concepts yet. You know, so which is exactly what I thought on my first year homeschooling that I was failing, I couldn’t teach my kids, you know, squat, they weren’t understanding me. But now I know how to teach it to them. Whether it be like an a song that’s fun and easy to memorize, which is how I taught them about coins and money, or through hands on stuff like interactive notebooks or games, which games are a super effective way for teaching concepts, especially math games, or those memorization games like spelling games, even apps, you can get that, that fun, interactive kind of way to like that game effectiveness. Either it’s with the curriculum, or it’s a standalone app. Those are great resources to teach kids stuff like spelling. So you know, learning styles are just kind of funny. Like I said, My son just can’t do interactive math videos, but he loves doing those spelling games on his tablet. So I just know how to piece together my homeschool. And instead of just wasting time and money and fretting and getting more gray hair, about how to teach them and you know what to teach them. I know exactly what to do, because they’re learning styles. And so I deliver it to them, I get the curriculum that aligns with their learning styles. And we do homeschool like that. And you know, it’s an easy day.

Kelsey

I love that how you’re able to kind of take what you know about your children’s learning styles. And that’s what you use kind of as you plan and the activities you pick and the games and everything that you just mentioned. So I think that’s a really smart way for anybody who homeschools their kids to figure out their learning styles for their children and even if you’re one of our teachers in the classroom listening, while it may be a little more challenging with more children and where you’re not with them every single moment of the day like one on one you can Still tap into all of us. As teachers, we know we really do get to know our students and you can identify their learning styles, especially if they’re a student who’s not quite getting the concept, you can kind of say, Hey, what is this child’s learning style, maybe I need to pull them into a small group and teach it this other way. So this is definitely useful content for all of our listeners. So I love this, how can our listeners find out about the learning styles of the children that they teach?

Richie

Oh, I have a blog post on my site homeschooling humor, which is homeschooling humor.com. That explains each learning style pretty thoroughly in more detail, from what each one is all the way to which curriculums would be best suited for each type of learner. And then I also have a learning styles quiz setup and which is at the either the bottom or the top of that same blog post, and it links to another blog post. And it has that learning styles quiz, I think you answer just like 10 questions, and according to your answers, it’s going to tell you which one is the dominant learning style for your child. So they can learn more about learning styles at the blog posts, and they can take the quiz to see what kind of learning style their child has. And this will help them become better equipped with making costly decisions, you know, costly as not just financially, but timely too, because you don’t want to spend so much time unnecessary time struggling to teach concepts to your kids. Like my mistake on year one, if you think about it is just a lot of time you’ll spend that could have been spent elsewhere, when I mean, you’re on my I almost want to say wasting time, but it’s not wasting time, you know, but your time will be better spent when you know their learning style. So it’s going to just save you a lot of time and money when you know their learning style. So you can find out a lot more about that at the blog post and at the learning styles quiz. But you can also download the freebie at the blog post which just Hanna helps you narrow down which learning style your child is and just kind of helps you understand which learning styles might best fit your child.

Kelsey

I love that we will link to that blog post and the quiz and all those links in the show notes so that our listeners can find it. So make sure to check that out for those links. And so Richie, you’re also hosting we mentioned this before, but I want to talk a little bit more about it the homeschool moms summit that’s happening this month on January starting January 23. And I’m so excited and honored that you invited me to present and the sponsor the event. So can you tell us a little bit about what’s to come in the summit and why our listeners should join us at this summit?

Richie

Yes, I am so excited about it. You know, I just love the idea behind this summit the theme for it. And I’m super happy that you partnered with us at homeschool moms summits to so we’re really honored to that you’ve joined us. It’s so exciting seeing the summit come together from ideation to just execution really. And I think it’s the whole planning of it that I love about it. Because I’m a total planning nerd, I geek out if I see a spreadsheet, no joke, I can spend all my time just planning. But eventually I realized I kind of need to start doing those things I plan to you know, so speaking of planning that the summit theme itself actually it’s about productivity for your homeschool. And it’s always stuck with me this quote, If you fail to plan you plan to fail. And that couldn’t be truer, really, you don’t know where you’re going or if you’ve met your goals if you don’t plan to get there. And that goes to homeschool too. So I mean, it goes in to anything, it goes with anything in life, but it definitely goes with homeschooling too. So we each have a goal or goals in our homeschool whether it’s a general overall homeschool goal or our more selective goal for each child. Like for instance, we might want to beef up a child’s writing, for example. So that would be a goal. And you would determine that if you know if to how to be fit up. If you have them, maybe write three essays, you know, that progressiveness each time. That could be how you measure their progress. And so your plan to hit those goals would be the little things that you do to get to that goal, which could be implemented a lot more you could implement a lot more writing in your homeschool lessons, you know to hit that writing goal goal. And this could be tape. This could be done like doing math notes when you’re teaching or writing out your sentences for spelling words. And I personally have my kids taking notes in their interactive notebooks for a lot of their stuff. subjects so that they’re not just practicing in their writing, but also their penmanship. So that’s exactly what I did to beef up our writing. It was one of our goals. So the summit will help homeschool moms with their goals too. And I’m so excited about it because that ends up being the goal goes back to one of the core. The core what is my word? It ends up being one of the questions that’s most often asked is how to plan your homeschool how to teach multiple kids how to how do you do it? How do you fit it all in one day? And how do you have still have time for the fun stuff? So this is what this homeschool moms summit is all about is going to answer all the questions that homeschool moms have and more that they didn’t know that they have, but they do have. We have five categories and this summit. The first one is about planning and productivity, like planning your homeschool, organizing it scheduling your lessons, homeschooling multiple kids or babies. And then we have resources and curriculum like lesson planning or curriculum selection or how to teach certain subjects and so on. Then the third category is how to homeschool which addresses different homeschool styles or methods of homeschooling, or gives insightful tips on how to homeschool from our speakers. And then the fourth category in the summit is encouragement for moms and bathe. So it’s a category that we added because no matter what you do to organize and plan your homeschool faith is still going to be important as well as self care. So moms need to be sure they’re still scheduling time for themselves for that mommy time as well as not being too busy for God. You know, homeschooling has its ups and downs, we all know that it’s not always clear skies. So this category is said to completely encourage and inspire homeschool moms helped refuel them. And it’s always encouraging to hear other’s experiences and how they overcame certain obstacles. So I think this category is truly going to be one of the one of a kind, especially since I already got the sneak peek of the workshops inside and let me tell you, they are jaw dropping incredible. I am just so old, with all the workshops on all the categories, but particularly the encouragement for mom one, but you just won’t believe just how awesome these workshops are. I mean, the speakers really did bring it, they brought their A game. And the last category is a wildcard category. And this category is just a more like a random fun topic category. It’s just more like unique finds and creative solutions that the speakers of this category have discovered from their own experiences. And they’re sharing it with the homeschool moms in the summit. So I really like that wildcard category too, because it’s more like almost like a junk drawer. In a way. It’s kind of what I called it earlier today to a friend. It’s like the junk drawer for the summit, but it has not junk in it. It has like just doing random, super unique, insightful topics in there that you just pretty much won’t get anywhere else. So I really liked the topics in the wildcard category. We have about 50 speakers and 20 sponsors and we’re looking at about 80 workshops right now. So that’s not all that we have for the summit either. And you can start registering for it right now. It begins January 23 through the 27th but you can register for it right now. We also have though, a little kind of fun side surprise in there too. We have business workshops in our exclusive in demand category. So this category is filled with business tips for the moms who are currently business owners or maybe it’s their desire to be one like maybe you want to start a homeschool blog, or you want to start an Etsy shop or you want to start putting things on on Teachers Pay Teachers. We have this business category included when attendees upgrade to the lifetime VIP pass, they’ll get access to all these workshops plus the business workshops to and that’ll help them get started with starting a business or starting a blog or or maintaining one if they already have one. But the lifetime VIP pass like I mentioned. They’ll also have a private podcast of all the workshops in there and almost my $3,000 in premium VIP bonuses donated by the speakers and sponsors. So these aren’t like airy fairy freebies in there, either. These are true high quality, full blown homeschool products that are worth at least a minimum of $15 each. And I saw one in there that was worth $250 from a speaker that donated it for free.

Kelsey

Yeah, and we are donating our 36 weeks of social emotional learning curriculum to that VIP pass. And those are worth I know, at least $40 per grade level. And we put all of our grade levels in there so that you all have the options. So yeah, lots of good stuff in there. It’s like a full year curriculum from us.

Richie

Oh, wow. That’s so cool. See, that’s what I’m saying right there. Just everything about this summit, every element, every area, just seems to just not just meet the requirements, but go above and beyond just to make sure every area of the summit meets any kind of need out there for the homeschool mom, you know, I think it’s just going to be awesome. So with the VIP pass, you get the private podcast, access to all 80 workshops, access to all the business workshops, then you get lifetime access to everything. You also get like a summit notebook that just kind of like breaks down the workshop topics a little bit more so that you can make it more actionable. And then we have like I said, almost $3,000 worth of VIP bonuses, homeschool products, absolutely free include well not free, but you know it’s included in the VIP pass at no cost. So, the homeschool moms summit winter refresh edition, it’s going to be one homeschool summit that I don’t think anybody can afford to miss, especially if you need some kind of creative productivity and planning solutions and tips. For your own homeschool. This is the place that this was the place to be for that winter reboot after the holidays. And for that transition.
