MI Chapter 1: The foundations of MI Theory

In this first chapter, I was able to get a better grasp on the eight intelligences. It offered a Multiple Intelligence Theory Summary Chart that gave specific details, showing examples of what falls under each of the eight intelligences. I also learned that each person carries all of these eight intelligences, some stronger and some weaker than others. This will help me in the classroom because I will know that some students for example can have very strong interpersonal and musical intelligences, while having mediocre musical intelligence. I now know that you do not just carry one, and have absolutely none of the seven other intelligences.
