Self: You have a very good sense of self. You like to spend time
by yourself and think things over. You will often take in
information from another person, mull it over by yourself, and
come back to that person later to discuss it. You like working
on projects on your own. You often prefer to learn by trial and

Social: You like to develop ideas and learn from other people.
You like to talk. You have good social skills. Effective
techniques of enhancing your learning using your social
intelligence include taking part in group discussions or
discussing a topic one-to-one with another person. Find ways to
build reading and writing exercises into your group activities,
such as:
· Reading a dialogue or a play with other people
· Doing team learning/investigating projects
· Setting up interview questions and interviewing your family,
and writing down the interview
· Writing notes to another instead of talking.
3.14
Logic/math:You enjoy exploring how things are related, and
you like to understand how things work. You like mathematical
concepts, puzzles and manipulative games. You are good at
critical thinking. Here are ways to work with this intelligence in
your lessons:
· Arrange cartoons and other pictures in a logical sequence.
· Sort, categorize, and characterize word lists.
· While reading a story, stop before you've finished and predict
what will happen next.
· Explore the origins of words.
· Play games that require critical thinking. For example, pick
the one word that doesn't fit: chair, table, paper clip, sofa.
Explain why it doesn't fit.
· Work with scrambled sentences. Talk about what happens
when the order is changed.
· After finishing a story, mind map some of the main ideas and
details.
· Write the directions for completing a simple job like starting a

4. car or tying a shoe.
· Make outlines of what you are going to write or of the
material you've already read.
· Look for patterns in words. What's the relationship between
heal, health, and healthier?
· Look at advertisements critically. What are they using to get
you to buy their product?

Just because these five are not in your top three doesn’t mean
you’re not strong in them. If your average score for any
intelligence is above three, you’re probably using that
intelligence quite often to help you learn. Take a look at the
