Q: Whether you homeschool your child or just provide help with homework it’s helpful to match your teaching style to your child’s learning style.  The best way to teach auditory learners is through verbal instruction and reading out loud. You should also incorporate songs or music into your teaching style. For example, if you want them to memorize a scientific equation, try putting it into a song. The best way to teach visual learners is through visual aids, flashcards, and educational videos. For example, if you are trying to teach them state capitals, draw a map of the U.S., outline the states, and indicate where the capitals are located. The best way to teach kinesthetic learners is by allowing them to do hands-on projects. For example, if you’re trying to teach them about volcanoes, have them build an actual model of a volcano. When choosing an educational program for your child, find one that complements their learning style.  For auditory learners, traditional educational programs tend to work best. However, you may also want to consider enrolling your child in an educational program which focuses on music or has a strong music department. If there are magnet schools in your area, look for one that specializes in music. For visual learners, traditional educational programs also work well. However, in some areas there are magnet schools which focus on the visual and performing arts. For kinesthetic learners, a Montessori program may fit their learning style best. These types of programs take a more hands on approach to learning. You can find Montessori programs in your area by conducting a search online for “Montessori schools near me.” In addition to choosing the right teaching method and educational program to suit your child’s learning style, it is equally helpful to teach your child how to study based on that style.  For auditory learners, have them create rhymes to memorize information, such as facts and dates. If possible, have them record lectures so that they can study by listening to the recordings. For visual learners, have them use flashcards when memorizing information. They can also study using their textbooks, particularly ones with graphs, pictures, and charts. For kinesthetic learners, have them use flashcards to study, particularly when learning facts, dates, and processes. Encourage them to take breaks when studying, as they need more time to process information (and often to release pent-up energy). Some children may have a combination of learning styles, so don’t expect them to completely identify with a single style. Also, a well-rounded individual needs to be able to acquire and utilize information in a wide range of ways, including through listening, looking, and doing.  Complement the child’s learning style with elements of the other major styles. Utilize flash cards with auditory learners and read aloud to visual learners. Help kinesthetic learners recognize that not every learning activity can be hands-on. Learning styles are not set in stone, and can sometimes shift as a child develops and matures.  So don’t assume that an auditory learner will always be strictly so; expose them to other learning styles all along the way.
A: Match your child’s learning style with your teaching style. Find programs that cater to your child’s strengths. Teach your child to study based on their learning style. Don’t completely limit your child to a single learning style.

Q: Sea salt is helpful for tooth pain, and you can make a sea salt rinse for your mouth. To make the rinse, dissolve ½ teaspoon of sea salt in four ounces of warm water. Hold the solution in your mouth over the painful tooth for 30 to 60 seconds. Spit it out and repeat two to three times.  You can also add antibacterial substances to this mixture to reduce the pain. Mix salt water, propolis, and mouthwash in equal qualities. Rinse your mouth with warm water afterwards. Make sure not to swallow the rinse. You can do this three to four times a day. Apple cider vinegar has antiseptic properties that can help alleviate tooth pain. To make an apple cider vinegar rinse, mix ¼ cup of warm water and 1/4 cup of apple cider vinegar. Hold the solution in your mouth over the painful tooth for 30 to 60 seconds. Spit it out and repeat 2-3 times. Do not swallow the water-vinegar mixture.  Rinse with warm water afterwards. You can do this three to four times a day. Rinse your mouth with 3% solution of hydrogen peroxide. Swish it around your mouth for 30 to 60 seconds and then spit it out. Make sure not to swallow this solution. Avoid alcohol, as it can cause severe dehydration or even burns on your soft tissue.
A: Use a sea salt rinse. Make an apple cider vinegar rinse. Try hydrogen peroxide.

Q: Make sure to leave the sidewalks clear for the firefighters to do their work. If there are too many people clumped on the sidewalks, firefighters cannot get through. Be sure to listen for people in authority giving directions. Teachers or your bosses will likely be looking to take a head count, so they will want to get everyone in the same area, which is why it's important to stay quiet. If there really is a fire, the building could eventually collapse. You should move a safe distance away from the building. Generally, across the street is fine. Don't assume that because the fire alarm has stopped, you can re-enter the building. Wait until the firefighters or someone else in charge tells you it's fine to go back inside. Once you hear that, you can resume normal activities.
A: Clear the sidewalks. Move to a safe distance. Wait for the all-clear.

Q: An interesting way to spark a riveting conversation is to debate. Simply choose a topic and have one person argue for it and another to argue against it.  Remind yourself and your companions that the debate is just a game. A fun debate can quickly turn into a heated argument that might create discomfort between everyone in the car. Choose funny and light-hearted topics. Avoid heavy or complex topics to keep everyone in good spirits. Instead of arguing about morals or religious beliefs, debate about whether strawberries are the best kind of berry or whether squirrels are cute or just plain annoying. There are many word games that can be competitively fun and entertaining, in situations where you're driving alone or with others:  Have a spelling bee. Name all the countries of the world. Name all the states or provinces or a country. Think of words that rhyme with each other as fast as you can. Whoever stops the pace, loses. Say one word at a time. Have each person say one word to create a sentence or story. You might come up with some hilarious examples. Read aloud a book or play and have everyone in the car act out a role or multiple roles. The driver should not participate in this game. If you're driving with others, get to know one another. Ask each other questions or play a variety of games:  Play two truths and a lie. Have one person tell two truths and a lie. The others must guess which statements are truths and which one is a lie. Play Never Have I Ever. Each person will keep track of their own points, or hold up 10 fingers, or even be prepared to drink or eat something every time someone says something they have never done, but has actually done the activity. For example, Sally will say, "Never have I ever danced on stage." If Bob has danced on stage before, he will lose a point or have to eat or drink something to show that he has indeed done that activity. Play truth or dare. However, be careful when designing the dares, ensuring that they can be safely done inside or outside the car. See how many things you can see during your car ride. You can try counting:  Certain colours of cars. People walking on the road. Birds. Animals. Certain chain stores or buildings. License plates of cars from your area or your destination.
A:
Have a debate with your car companions. Play word games. Enact a dramatic performance or play. Get to know one another. Count things.
