== Kinesthetic memory ==
Depending upon [[Mnemonic|memory systems]] the kinesthetic learners respond differently. The different kinds of learners mainly include whole body learners, hands-on learners, doodlers, students learning through emotional experiences. The learning and the memory is generally short term. To achieve a long-term memory different techniques can be used depending on the learning style. Mind mapping, story mapping, webbing, drawing can be used to enhance the learning of a doodler.  For the hands-on learner, role play, clay, building and math manipulative can be used. The whole body learner can learn better through role-playing, body mapping, puzzles and use of computer technology which allows for certain movement while learning. Students can be engaged in group activities and activities which involve bodily movement such as dance, drama, sports can be used to nurture their learning. The following strategies can be used to facilitate kinesthetic memory through procedural motor pathway such as:
* [[Dance]]: ideas, concepts and processes can be expressed through creative movements
* Laboratory demonstrations
* [[Sport]]s
* [[Gymnastics]]
* [[Charades]]
The kinesthetic learners who have memories associated with [[emotion]]s learning can be facilitated through dance, [[debate]], [[drama]], [[Role-playing|role-play]], and charades. This kind of learning leads to a [[long-term memory]] since it is associated with emotions such as [[wikt:excitement|excitement]], [[curiosity]], [[anger]], [[disappointment]] and success.<ref name="Sprenger2008">{{cite book|author=Marilee Sprenger|title=Differentiation Through Learning Styles and Memory|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=DaVu2p5uDBkC&pg=PA113|year=2008|publisher=Sage Publications|isbn=978-1-4522-9504-6|pages=113–}}</ref>
