Question : How can I implement a multiple intelligences activity in my Grade 7 Science classroom.

How will I learn more? I complete an extensive reconnaissance on multiple intelligences. I collected approximately 17 resources and formulated an action plaN.

What do I experiment with? What action will I take? (what, when, who) - I implemented a Think Tac Toe MI activity on Earth Processes after I assessed my students MI profile (using an MI inventory) - I compared the assessment results of the MI activity to a Socratic lesson and pen/paper test - I analyzed the findings and reported the findings - I discovered a few new understanding from this activity

I discovered that there was a huge difference in my students grades. My students are excited about learning Science. They continue to be and I completed my action 2 months ago. My classroom has totally changed as it is now ful of inquiry and energy.you

I have created a powepoint for my AR. If you would like a copy just let me know.

Planning - Now that I have learned how to unwrap the curriculum I have a better understanding how to plan for my classroom. I how the unwrapping process identifies what students need to know and how I need to assess them or the skills that the students need to have. From that I am able to formulate Big Ideas and Essential Questions which link to the assessment piece I will utilize in my class. However, I do believe it is going to be a lengthy process and I am concerned about the amount of time I will be able to have to complete the process on my own. Working in groups would be the most benefical way of completing this task but it is difficult to get together with others to do this.
