Unit Activity 3: "Multiple Intelligences Learning Stations" Differentiating by Learning Profile

In this lesson, students will choose and use technology activities based on the students' multiple intelligences. Students will choose 3 different activities from the multiple intelligences Tic-Tac-Toe board. These activities are based on the study of the Great Depression and the New Deal. Each activity will assess students on the Great Depression and the New Deal, while incorporating technology. Rubrics will be attached to each activity so students know exactly what is expected of them.
 * __Lesson Summary:__**

Each student has a different and unique learning style. Today we are going to focus on our diverse learning styles based on Gardner's Multiple Intelligences Theory. According to Gardner, there are nine different intelligences: logic smart, music smart, nature smart, body smart, people smart, word smart, wonder smart, picture smart, and self smart. All of you fit into one or more categories when it comes to learning. For this lesson, you get to choose activities you want work on based on your multiple intelligences. SInce most people possess all nine intelligences in varying degrees you will choose 3 activities from the Tic-Tac-Toe Board of the Multiple Intelligences. Choose 3 activites that best meet your needs as a learner. All activities focus on the Great Depression and the New Deal. All activities are also orientated around technology requiring you to utilize the computers. For those of you not familiar with the multiple intelligences there is a brief description and picture of the multiple intelligences in the Tic-Tac-Toe boxes to help you make your choice. Click on the colored web links to further explore the activities to determine your multiple intelligence. You will also notice that on each activity page has a another link under the rubric section where they will find a rubric that explain the expectations for each activity. You will be assessed with the rubrics.
