Multiple Intelligences Lesson Plan Book

Teachers can incorporate the multiple intelligences into their everyday teaching. This innovative resource contains 40 reproducible "Week at a Glance" planners. Each week includes daily checklists for the intelligences; weekly reflection on how to apply the intelligences; space for noting priorities, special events, and conferences; and space to note successes, challenges, and spin-off ideas. Fifteen additional MI lesson plan forms are great for unit plans, lesson plans, and activity centers. Practical suggestions are offered for specific activities to incorporate each intelligence into the classroom, for assessments that incorporate the multiple intelligences, for ways of formulating objectives to meet the cognitive, affective, and interactive needs of students, and for valuable resource materials for each intelligence, including music to facilitate learning.
