In Level 4 today, we talked a bit about what the idea of multiple intelligences is. We also thought of some different skills and categorized them before examining the same discussion had by our characters in our book from Unit 1 pages 6-7. So have you thought more about your own personal strengths? Did you think in class, “Why are we talking so much about this idea anyway”? Well, we did so for good reason. Our homework was to write a short paragraph describing our current study habits of English and what strategies we may add to them the help us improve. If we understand our multiple intelligences, we can better adopt relevant strategies that pertain to our learning strengths. So why not go on a little journey of self-discovery?
Visit this website (ßclick the highlighted word) and take the survey. Once completed, print your results and examine them closely. Do any of their suggested learning strategies appeal to you? If you like some of them, we will be re-writing our paragraphs to incorporate these strategies that are based on our highest ranked category of intelligence. Perhaps this year will be your most successful year of learning now that you’ve incorporated strategies most related to your strengths!
