Change Your Bait! Eight Great Strategies to HOOK Every Learner –

The Multiple Intelligences Presenter: Martha Kaufeldt As described by Howard Gardner, a leading researcher at Harvard on the understanding of the

multiple intelligences (MI), an “intelligence” is the ability to solve problems or create meaningful products in a particular setting. Gardner and his team have identified at least eight ways that we learn and know about reality that are common to all cultures, and he believes there may be more. Each of us has unique strengths based on our genetics and our environment. Each person is “smart” in his or her own way. By discovering and building on those strengths we can help students use their intelligences to enhance their understanding of new concepts. The eight intelligences Gardner identified are the most common or preferred processing and problem-solving abilities:

• Verbal-Linguistic “Word Smart” • Logical-Mathematical “Logic Smart”

• Visual-Spatial “Picture Smart”

• Bodily-Kinesthetic “Body Smart” • Musical-Rhythmic “Music Smart”

• Naturalist “Nature Smart” • Interpersonal “People Smart”

• Intrapersonal “Self Smart”

Students may grasp new concepts more easily if they have opportunities to process the

information in a way that makes sense to them - and comes more easily to them. The following list contains some indicators to help teachers and parents determine at a glance some of the students most developed intelligences.

Verbal-Linguistic = “Word Smart”

A love of language and words Enjoys reading and writing Good at word games & puzzles Uses metaphors and colorful language

Logical-Mathematical = “Logic Smart”

Creates logical patterns Good at strategy games like chess –often

competitive Enjoys numbers and calculations Uses lists and step-by-step approach

Interpersonal = “People Smart”

Great communicator Enjoys working with and

helping others. Very social and has a lot of

friends. Can read other’s intentions,

moods and feelings. Intrapersonal = “Self Smart”

Process and problem-solves best while alone Takes time for reflection and contemplation Not very social – independent Has strong intuitive sense

Vocabulary Strategy – Frayer Model National Behaviour Support Service

Definition: - The perimeter of a shape is the distance around the edge of the object. - The perimeter of a circle is called the circumference.

- Common units: cm, m, km,

Examples: The perimeter of this rectangle is 3+7+3+7 = 20 Rectangle perimeter = 2(l+b) An example of a perimeter is the line where your wall goes on the border of your garden.

Non Examples:

Can’t find the perimeter because it’s not a closed figure.

2cm x 4cm= 8cm². This is area, not perimeter. If it was perimeter you would add all of the side lengths together.

Facts/Characteristics: Add only the numbers on the outside of the shape. All the length outside an object added together

Perimeter

Definition: A short poem of 14 lines with rhymes arranged according to a certain scheme. The poem is divided into a major group of 8 lines (the octave) followed by a minor group of 6 lines (the sestet).

Examples: How do I love thee? Let me count the ways. I love thee to the depth and breadth and height My soul can reach, when feeling out of sigh For the ends of Being and ideal Grace… Elizabeth Barrett Browning Shall I compare thee to a summer's day? Thou art more lovely and more temperate. Rough winds do shake the darling buds of May, And summer's lease hath all too short a date… William Shakespeare

Non Examples:

Ode to a Grecian Urn by John Keats

Mid-Term Break by Seamus Heaney

Back in the Playground Blues by Adrian Mitchel

Facts: Three main types of sonnets named after the poets that used them: Shakespearean, Spenserian and Petrarchan. A strict rhyme scheme - Shakespearean sonnet is ABABCDCDEFEFGG. Written in iambic Pentameter, a poetic meter with 10 beats per line

RAFT  Role  •  Audience  •  Format  •  Topic  

 

What  Is  It?  RAFT is an engaging, rigorous strategy developed by Holston & Santa (1985) to encourage writing across the curriculum. Instead of writing a traditional essay explaining a learned concept, students demonstrate their understanding in a specific, nontraditional format. This technique encourages creative thinking and motivates students to reflect in unusual ways about concepts they have read about.  

RAFT  Is  an  Acronym    

R   Role: What is the writer’s role? (e.g., reporter, observer, eyewitness, object, number)

A   Audience: Who will read the writing? (e.g., teacher, students, parents, editor, community members)

F   Format: What is the best way to present this writing? (e.g., article, report, letter, poem, advertisement, e-mail)

T   Topic: Who or what is the subject of this writing? (e.g., scientist, prehistoric cave dweller, literary character, chemical element, physical object)

The RAFT strategy makes each student process information, rather than merely writing answers to questions. Students are more motivated to undertake a writing assignment because it addresses a variety of learning preferences. This writing-to-learn strategy engages students in explaining what they know about a topic and elaborating on the topic in a fun way.

How  to  Use  It  1. Think about concepts or processes that you want students to learn. Consider how writing in a fun way

can enhance students’ understanding of a topic.

2. Brainstorm roles students can assume in their writing. (Think about literary or historical figures.)

3. Decide the audience, format for writing, and the best topic.

4. Assign the same role to all students—or let them choose.

5. Have students assemble a “correspondence booklet” containing several letter exchanges to add a layer of complexity.

R—Role   A—Audience   F—Format   T—Topic  Plant   Sun   Thank-­‐you  note   For  the  sunshine  

Lungs   Cigarette  company   Complaint  letter   Effects  of  smoking  

Water  droplet   Students   Travel  guide   Water  cycle  

Waldo   Reader   Directions   How  to  find  me  

Pioneer  woman   Mother  (East  coast)   Letter   Trip  conditions
