Using smart phone with micro videos & mini-poems for dysgraphics: A research lesson example

Children with learning disability of dysgraphia are basically visual-auditory learners since they cannot write. It is advisable that they must be taught through short poems with visuals.

Mobile camera can be easily used to create visuals to be shown and talked about first to create mental images then teacher created poem should be recited with a protocol.

The “VARK” (visual, auditory, reading and kinesthetic) method devised by Neil D. Fleming and Coleen E. Mills has been found suitable for dysgraphic children.

Here is a research lesson material in the form of a short poem in Hindi (Grade 2) and a micro-video short with a smart phone camera.

मधुमक्खी पर लघु कविता

मधुमक्खी है इक कीट-पतंगा

कदापि ना लेना इस से पंगा।

डंक इसका है पीड़ाकारी

पीठ पे इस के मीनाकारी।

मेहनत से नहीं डरती ये

मधु एकत्र करती ये।

फूलों पे मँडरारती ये

मीठा शहद बनाती ये।
