Howard Gardner's groundbreaking theory applied for classroom use
This important book offers a practical guide to understanding how Howard Gardner's theory of Multiple Intelligences (MI) can be used in the classroom. Gardner identified eight different types of intelligence: linguistic, logical, spatial, musical, bodily-kinesthetic, naturalist, interpersonal, and intrapersonal. Celebrating Every Learner describes the characteristics of each type of intelligence and follows up with ready-to-use lesson plans and activities that teachers can use to incorporate MI in their pre-K through 6 classrooms.

The New City School in St. Louis, Missouri, has been successfully using Howard Gardner's Multiple Intelligence (MI) model for more than twenty years to provide joyful and challenging educational experiences to children ages 3 through grade 6. Celebrating Every Learner describes how tailoring lessons to students' intelligences—Interpersonal, Intrapersonal, Bodily-Kinesthetic, Linguistic, Logical-Mathematical, Musical, Spatial, and Naturalist—creates a deeper level of understanding, so that children can use what they've learned in new and different situations. In addition to the treasury of classroom activities, lesson plans, and assessment tools, Celebrating Every Learner contains valuable essays on how and why to integrate MI in the classroom.
