Abstract:
- Kids could be good at remembering faces, but not names. It has to do with the level of growth.
- Have to teach within the intelligences in order for students to be engaged and active learners.
- People have used their intelligences to remember something labelled as another intelligence many times.
- Stretch students minds. Really make them think. Help them realize that the world is complicated. Real life use of multiple intelligence teaching. Students will remember real life situations better than learning something they think they will never use.
Reflection:
Our group agreed with this chapter, however didn't' understand it as well as past chapters. The point we all agreed on was that it says to use multiple intelligences so students remember the content, and then the teacher needs to help guide the students to deeper learning and understanding. It's not effective for students to remember facts and just regurgitate them back. That is not learning at all because the students will forget in a matter of days. Brian states that it's important for both teacher and student to really dig down.

Chapter 8 Review
Abstract:
Classroom Management
- white noise, to get attention, write silence, or clap, put a gfinger on the lips, point at a picture of a good class, time how long they take to quiet down, whisper, just start teaching, play bird noises.
These were all ideas for when you need to get control of your classroom. Obviously they won't all work for any group of kids, but one of them should work for the group of students that the teacher might have.
- some other ideas were to use symbols when preparing for tranistions so the students knew what to expect.
-Create a set of classroom rules with the students. So the rules they need to follow are their own.
-A teacher needs to be willing to target kids. Point out kids, use names, get in their faces, target each student equally.
Create hetero groups
Reflection
Some of the ideas are really good. The quiet ideas to gain control of the classroom I think will be very effective. As long as a techer is patient and is willing to just hold up a hand for a few extra seconds. I think that these are good ways to get control of a classroom, and the one I like th mst is probably just going right into the lesson. The students would know that they are responsible for what is presented while theya re talking, I bet most students would quiet down.
