MI Chapter 7: MI and the Classroom Environment

Chapter 7 is about creating a classroom environment that is friendly and welcoming to students. The chapter asks questions about the environment to help students make improvements on it. It also suggests setting up activity centers for each of the intelligences. This way students can enjoy their strengths while getting a chance to develop intelligences that are not as well developed. I’m not sure that as a teacher I would set up the activity centers but I do understand how important a good learning environment. My high school was always too cold and it made it hard to focus in the winter. Having an environment that is more cozy will make my students feel more welcome in the classroom.
