The left side

Louie's group is doing a presentation about the left side of the brain. One article called " The Left Side" talks about how some people are dominant on the left side than the right side. Everybody knows that the sides of your brain work in opposite ways. The left side of ones brains controls the right side of the body and the right side of the brain controls the left side of the body. I learned this because a couple of years ago my grandfather had a stroke in the left side of his brain so his right side was paralyzed. Now he is able to move his right side of his body but he moves much slower than before. In the article it is said that people who are left brain dominant tend to do so:

• Prefer Classical Music
• Your Left-Brain controls the right side of your body
• Prefer things like instructions to be done verbally
• Good at math
• Like to read
• Follow Western Thought*
• Very Logical
• Dog lovers
• Don't enjoy clowning around
• Can't be hypnotized
• Usually remember things only specifically studied
• Need total quiet to read or study
• Like to read realistic stories
• Like to write non-fiction
• Prefer individual counseling
• Enjoy copying or tracing pictures and filling in details
• Also like to read action stories
• Usually rational
• Usually do things in a planned orderly way
• If you have to answer someone's question, you won't let your peronal feelings get in the way
• Good at algebra
• Can remember verbal material
• Almost never absent minded
• Like to tell stories but not act them out
• Can think better sitting down
• Like to be a music critic
• Attentive during long verbal explanations
• Prefer well structured assignments over open ended ones
• Read for specific details and facts
• Skilled at sequencing ideas
• Likes to be Organized

I believe that a person wouldn't know if they were left brain dominant just by saying their interest and skills. But someone else who is aware of these traits would be able to tell.
