Helena….It is very desirable to focus on his musical interest including the possibility of learning a musical instrument….play on his positives rather than his limitations….give him special praise for his talent in music…he will find some compensations for his left brain problems as he grows older.

Thanks for the clear explanation,
I have a four year boy nephew, he is unable to focus, hard to spell before (now has such progress), interest to music prior to clasical music. it proved when we go to church he can put a lot intention for music or note. I know this boy is right brain, and i told to his mom. i said that this is obviously different child. we have to treat him differently. He was not put really attention if someone talk but he can remember the word and ask the word by sudden. I said he is a blessed child. My question, is there any possibility for CAAD become under IQ? He is just assesed by a psicology and waiting for the result? Many thanks and hope hear from u.

wow, amazing, i’m incredibly swayed this way, while everyone has called me incredibly creative or artistic, i barely heard them as i figured i had brain damage or something, utter confusion, to the point where my world is very on/off back wards and forwards a series of many inexplicable opposites, since it’s all an array of seemingly random pictures, i’ve looked to this website many times but only now after being diagnosed as all sorts of “learning disabilities” and audio processing errors, dyslexia dysgrafia bipolar schizo tendencies does this “feel”/make sense and can be understood, my minds blown, thank you for this webste a life saver

Carol,

The new discoveries of right brained children reveal their importance in the 21st century when creativity is going to play a primary role.

I am so awed by this. How could we have come so far as a society, and have gotten veritably nowhere with this phenomenon?

As I mentioned so many times before, this article is awesome, Sid.

I home educate three boys. My oldest is a right-brain learner. We just had a consultation with Dianne Craft in CO where we were able to discern and develop strategies for overcoming his learning glitches. Then she helped me to learn how to teach to him. Not only that but I was able to gain nutritional strategies designed to help improve his focus as well as further strengthen and develop his corpus callossum by using fish and other oils. After going through a torturous, two-year journey of searching for answers, I hope some day to be able to educate other parents about right-brain learners and how amazing and intelligent they are. My son doesn’t need to change a thing. I have to learn how to teach to HIS strengths. THAT’S what teachers DO.

Hi Mindy,

Thanks for your comment…regrettably I am not an expert in this field and feel unable to give expert advice on your child’s right brain education…these children often have dyslexia and/or ADD…specialists in this field may be the best source of information.

How do I find a teacher who can teach my right brained child? Is this idea/discovery so new that it has hit so few schools and teachers? Any thoughts would be helpful.

Carol,

A new theory which may throw more light on the nature of dyslexia is a finding that their corpus callosum (the muscle between right brain and left)is smaller than normal so messages do not as easily travel through the pathway between both sides of the brain…and consequently the right brain may compensate for this limitation.

Also it was found that children who learned to play a musical instrument before the age of 7 had a larger than normal corpus callosum suggesting it may be increased in size by early childhood exercises…the future of this pioneering field gives new hope for those with a dyslexia problem.

What a wonderful recognition. Pink Floyd said it their song “Another Brick in the Wall,” didn’t they? The Wassermans, a husband/wife research team, discovered through a brain scan that there is an area on the left side of the brain that doesn’t emit any waves. So dyslexics are working around the use of that area.

Teachers don’t want to hear about it, it seems. They are overloaded already. It’s a shame, because a lot of creative thinkers go unnoticed and their talent untapped.
