What are some differences in how girls and boys LEARN?
What do we know about differences in how girls and boys learn?
There are significant differences in the ways girls and boys learn,
differences which are more substantial than age differences in many
ways. In other words, a 7-year-old girl and a 7-year-old boy differ,
on average, on parameters such as "How long can you sit still, be
quiet, and pay attention?" Those differences between a same-age girl
and same-age boy are larger than differences between, say, a 7-year-old
girl and a 9-year-old girl. Most American schools segregate kids on
the basis of age differences: they put 7-year-olds in one classroom and
9-year-olds in another classroom. And yet, on some parameters - such as
how long a child can sit still, be quiet, and pay attention - the sex
differences (e.g. between the average 7-year-old girl and the average
7-year-old boy) are larger than the age differences (e.g. between the
average 7-year-old girl and the average 9-year-old girl).

SECTION 2
WHAT'S YOUR CHILD'S
LEARNING STYLE?
Is your child a looker, listener or mover? Researchers have
observed that learning styles run in families and tend to
differ between boys and girls.
Beginning in the first months of life, children reveal their
particular preference for learning. McKenzie is a noisy baby,
playfully babbling, cooing, and clicking her tongue. In
contrast, Carlos is quiet and visually alert, eyes intently
focused on his crib mobile and his mother's face. Wyatt is a
wiggly baby, arms and legs in motion as he kicks off his crib
covers.
Girl vs. boy babies
Parents observe that boy and girl babies differ from the time
they're in the crib. Boy babies are visually alert and physically
active. Girl babies are attuned to sounds around them and are
quite vocal.
Research bears out that these differences exist. Richard Restak
in his now classic book, The Brain: The Last Frontier, reports
that in contrast to boys, girl babies:
•are more sensitive to sounds, especially their mother's voice
•are more attentive to faces, speech patterns, and tones of voice;
that is, to the social context of a situation
•speak sooner and possess larger vocabularies.
Compared to girls, boy babies were found to:
•demonstrate early superiority in visual acuity
•perform better in gross motor body movements
•possess better spatial abilities in terms of dealing with
three-dimensional space.
