| Summary: | Helping students develop multiple intelligences and achieve content mastery requires teachers to design meaningful active learning experiences. Active learning uses the active engagement of the students' thinking processes in learning and applying knowledge. By designing active strategies that engage each student's strongest learning skills, a teacher evens out the learning field. This handbook contains 200 practical active learning strategies that can be implemented immediately in the kindergarten through twelfth grade classrooms. The active learning activities are organized by the eight intelligences of verbal/linguistic, logical/mathematical, visual/spatial, bodily/kinesthetic, musical/rhythmic, interpersonal, intrapersonal, and naturalist. Each activity description lists the purpose, when to use, the necessary materials, and how to do the activity. Variations of each activity provide ways to adapt a strategy to different content areas or to integrate multiple intelligences. Twenty-two blackline masters are provided in a separate section for specific handouts referenced in activities. As many of these handouts are used in a variety of activities, they are organized alphabetically by their title rather than in relation to the chapter in which they appear. Contains 23 references and an index. (KB) |
