2. Introduction
 Help! Mrs. Frizzwart has a problem.
Her students in her 3rd grade class
are always falling asleep because she
drones on and on in her whiny high-
pitched voice and doesn’t do
anything to make class exciting.
 Mrs. Frizzwart is about to start a
new unit about healthy eating ,and
she needs YOUR help to make it
exciting so that her students can
learn to take care of their bodies.
 You only have one week to get
something together – her new unit
starts on Monday!

3. Task
Mrs. Frizzwart wants 8 activities to do with her
students, and she wants each activity to feature
one of the 8 multiple intelligences.
As a class, your mission is to come up with 8
different activities for Mrs. Frizzwart – one for
each of the multiple intelligences.

4. Process
 1) Find a Partner
 2) Sign-up with teacher for a multiple intelligence
 3) Using resources on previous slide and the internet,
find an activity that fits the intelligence you chose AND
goes along with the healthy eating unit (Example:
Intrapersonal (Myself) – journal daily for one week about
your healthiest meal)
 4) Make sure your activity is appropriate for young
children, ages 8-9
 5) Ask yourself questions like: “How would someone who
loves music be able to learn about eating healthfully
while enjoying music?” A possible answer may be
something like: “Through learning a song that talks about
making healthy food choices” (Make question relevant to
your multiple intelligence)

5. Process Continued…
 6) After choosing an activity, create a tri-fold
display that includes the components listed on the
rubric
 7) Present your display to the entire class and make
