Objective: I can determine my two strongest learning styles while becoming acquainted with myself and others in the classroom.

BW:  Have I experienced a class in which I could not concentrate?  Describe in a short paragraph without naming specific teachers or schools.(7 sent. +).

Activities:

  1.  Share Out:  Students will be selected randomly to share their entries.  Follow-up questions can include:  What was the cause?  How can this situation be prevented?
  2. On a separate paper, number from 1-77 on one side.
  3. Write “yes” if the item “fits” you, and “no” if it doesn’t.  Go with your gut feeling.
  4. Total the number “A” or “fits” responses for each of the seven intelligences.
  5. On the front page, list your two strongest intelligences.
  6. Turn-and-Talk:  Do you agree with the results? What do you think of your partner’s strongest learning styles?  Do you see a difference?
  7. Review and submit the policies for behavior and make-up work expectations.
  8. Reminder:  The spiral notebooks are due tomorrow at the beginning of class.
