Learning Differences between Boys and Girls

Have you “had it up to here” with homeschooling your boys? They are a special kind of student! If we listen to our culture, there are no differences between boys and girls. But any common sense observation tells you otherwise, and so does the research. Boys and girls learn differently. It is such a relief to accept this reality and make the proper adjustments so that your boys can learn in the way that God created them to learn. I sat down with Andrew Pudewa (creator of Excellence in Writing) in Virginia a few weeks back for an interview. One of the topics that emerged was the research behind how girls and boys learn differently and how we can make some helpful adjustments. Below you can view a clip from our interview on this topic. Some of the practical take-aways include: Girls and boys learn differently and use their brains differently. Girls hear quieter sounds than boys. When boys can’t follow what is going on, they get bored very quickly. Girls are more sensitive to volume, so be careful about raising your voice. Help boys learn how to pay attention and develop the skill of listening. Boys are not good at being still. Making them sit down often does not facilitate learning.
