Chapter 4: Teaching Students About MI Theory

This chapter explains how a teacher would teach the MI theory to young children. The value of this is that students learn better when they understand how they, themselves learn. The two big tips the section gave to help during teaching the lesson were to keep it simple and make connections to the students. Show the students what lessons looks like when targeted to different learning styles. This affects me as a teacher by giving me another option of how to become acquainted with my students' intelligences. For my students, this gives them an opportunity to be a part of that discovery. Not only I, as the teacher, can become aware of the students' intelligences, but they can too.
