Chapter 7: MI and the Classroom Environment

As a teacher, being aware of what is going on in the classroom is imperative. This chapter is about checking classroom ecology or the environment using the multiple intelligences. In other words, making sure the classroom is friendly to all of the multiple intelligences, so each can learn. This chapter gives questions, categorized by each intelligence, to consider about the classroom. It also suggests activity centers that focus on different intelligences. This affects me as a teacher by stressing the importance of maintaining a classroom environment that is conducive to learning by all students. This affects my students by making learning easier for them.
