Teaching and Learning Through Multiple Intelligences

Every teacher can develop students' eight intelligences and teach basic skills through multiple modes. Ready-to-use assessment tools and lesson plans make this book a unique starting point and reference guide. The intelligences are defined throughout, and the authors provide a checklist for identifying them, suggest environmental considerations, and offer related teaching strategies.

“An excellent survey of multiple intelligences from the perspective of the educator. The book is chock full of valuable classroom exercises, resources, materials for assessment, and ideas for interdisciplinary units. It also contains a full discussion of the newly discovered naturalist intelligence, along with many timely instructional suggestions.”
