The document discusses key aspects of implementing a multiple intelligences approach in the classroom, including defining the eight original multiple intelligences identified by Howard Gardner. It explains that a multiple intelligences approach allows teachers to honor student diversity and differentiate instruction. The document provides guidance on developing a multiple intelligences-based unit plan, including using a variety of teaching methods and assessments aligned to the different intelligences. It also discusses principles of brain-based learning and creating rubrics.

2.  Define Multiple intelligence
 Show why and how multiple intelligences can
be used in the classroom
 Recognize the thirteen-steps to develop a
Unit plan
 Discuss aspects of using a Brain-Based
Learning Approach
 Write a MI Unit Plan
 Define and create a rubric

3.  Developed by Howard Gardner
 The Multiple Intelligence theory would allow
people to assess the talents and skills of the
whole individual.
 There are 8 intelligences (originally):
 Visual/Spatials -Logical/Mathematical
 Verbal/Linguistic -Musical/Rhythmic
 Bodily Kinesthetic -Interpersonal/Social
 Naturalist -Intrapersonal/Introspective

5.  It allows teachers to honor the diversity of
students and understand that not all student
can achieve the standards at the same time and
by only one mode.
 By creating a unit plan incorporating learning
experiences and assessments using the MI
provides a creative way to teach the standards,
differentiate instruction, and motivate students
to learn in a variety of fun and challenging
ways.

6. An enriched environment will:
 Stimulate all the senses (but not all at once)
 Has an atmosphere free of undue pressure
 Presents a series of novel challenges that is at
the student’s developmental level
 Allows social interaction
 Promotes the development of broad range of
skills and interests
*** It enables teachers to make the most of
students’ individual differences and diversity
