  2. Time for a Quiz • Pass out assessment • Talk about results “Everybody is a genius. But if you judge a fish by its ability to climb a tree, it will live its whole life believing that it is stupid.” ― Albert Einstein

  3. Eight Intelligences • Linguistic • Logical/Mathematical • Bodily- Kinesthetic • Visual/ Spatial • Musical • Interpersonal • Intrapersonal • Naturalist Developed by Howard Gardner

  4. Linguistic Thinks in words Expresses complex ideas in words Verbally or orally Manipulate word order

  15. Discussion Points • What elements did Garner discuss that we have already discussed in this class? • How does this work with inquiry learning? • What are your thoughts on Garner’s statement: “A mile wide an inch deep?”

  16. Essential Points • “HOW are you smart?” • Everyone has ALL intelligences. • You don’t have to teach everything 8 times. • Used for instruction AND assessment.

  22. Classroom Successes SPED accommodations “Kid watching” What Works:

  23. Criticisms: Ad hoc Gardner never developed own assessment tool Lack of empirical evidence Different intelligences not covered Is this the best method for you?

  24. The question is not, “Are you smart?” But rather, “HOW are you smart?” NEA Teacher-to-Teacher Books: Multiple Intelligences
