The 8th Grade has Multiple Intelligences

The 8th grade class started the year exploring their multiple intelligences.  First, the students took a multiple intelligences test to determine the areas of intelligence in which they showed strengths.  Then, they completed a bar graph  over their results and learned about the different multiple intelligences:  Verbal, Logical, Kinesthetic, Musical, Visual, Interpersonal, Intrapersonal, and Naturalistic.  After reviewing the ways to utilize each area while studying and completing homework, the students were assigned a project to complete in their highest category of multiple intelligence.  Students created a project over their favorite book character.  Some of the projects included song lyrics, sculptures, drawings, diary entries, models, and many others.  If you would like to take your own multiple intelligence test, you can do this online at:  Multiple Intelligence Test
