Abstract

Sixteen preschool children enrolled in a preschool participated in this study. The purpose of this study was to determine if using kinesthetic learning in a preschool classroom would result in students' correctly identifying geometric shapes. The application of kinesthetic learning activities for the acquisition of these skills were made through the use of a geometric shape intervention. Data was collected using a geometric flashcard assessment and a student checklist. The data suggested that student ability to identify geometric shapes increased.
