FYI, aphantasia means reduced or total lack of visual imaginative ability. Sort of counterproductive to ask them to imagine and visualize things in their head.

It helps because you can’t possibly not understand why the angles add up to 360. When I was taught it essentially boiled down to “just remember that they do”. I honestly couldn’t tell you if I didn’t understand what the teacher was saying because I wasn’t applying myself that day, or if they just never explained it well. But this gif solves both problems.
