Abstract:
This chapter focused on the multiple intelligences. Everyone possesses all eight intelligences, just at different levels. Different activities such as field trips and certain games can help students develop their intelligences. Incorporating the multiple intelligences into activities helps students find out which intelligences are their strongest. Also, when introducing intelligences to younger audiences, using simpler terms such as “word smart” for linguistic intelligence and “number smart” for logical/ mathematical helps a great deal.
Reflection:
I think that teaching students about MI’s at a young age is important. Letting students know that they are all intelligent in all eight areas of the MI’s is always reassuring. I think that the activity ideas are a great way for students to learn about themselves and develop their intelligences. However, a lot of these ideas seem more geared towards the younger grades.
