Synopsis

Multiple intelligence theory holds that intelligence is not a single, static quality that can be reflected in an IQ score; rather, there are at least eight ways of knowing or being smart. This book helps educators fully understand how multiple intelligence theory can improve their educational practice and how to share the benefits with students and parents. A series of 20 activities leads teachers through the process of helping students become more aware of their own multiple intelligences and how they can be applied at school and at home. These exercises, presented as copy-ready handouts, will assist students in determining their intelligence strengths and developing their weaker intelligences. In addition to the 20 base exercises, extension activities on each topic are provided.
