MI Chapter 4

Chapter 4 explains that children benefit from instructional approaches that help them reflect on their own learning. It is important for students to know about the MI theory so that they can see how they use their different "smarts." Students can be introduced to the MI theory easily, using the author's instructions. The eight intelligences can be taught in a variety of ways. Some ways that stuck out at me the most is to do a marathon using all eight intelligences. The other one was the method using tables that require students to use a different intelligence at each table. This one stuck out because it triggered a memory of me doing this in first grade.
