Multiple Intelligences and After-School Environments: Keeping All Children in Mind

This book explores the different ways children learn, based upon Howard Gardner's theory of multiple intelligences (linguistic, logical/mathmatical, spatial, body/kinesthetic, musical, interpersonal, intrapersonal, naturalist). Offers concrete ways in which adults who work in child-centered environments can provide activities, oppoortunities, and experiences that encourage all learning styles. Suggestions for activities and materials to encourage creating, constructing, discovering, relaxing, reading & writing, pretending & performing and playing games are included.
