Abstract: MI chapter seven looks at incorporating MI into the classroom environment. There are many different ways to do so including: the use of space, time, sequence, atmosphere, visuals, furniture and a few more. The chapter also discusses the use of MI activity centers in the form of designated areas around the classroom. There were several types of these activity centers that were permanent open ended centers and others that were temporary topic specific centers. The chapter also gave examples of these activity centers that could be used.
Reflection: This seems very well suited for the younger grades. Several of the problems that we discussed in group were the limited amount of space in the classroom along with the limited amount of time that is spent with the kids. WE also discussed using your time efficiently and reaching all of the MI in other ways that were more geared toward the content of the classroom. It would also be interesting to see if the kids went to the MI that they wanted to or if they just went along with their friends.
