Teachers Understand Children Learn Differently

When students develop self-awareness, they are better able to take advantage of their strengths and consciously focus to improve on other areas. Knowing oneself also shows respect for the gifts and talents God has blessed each child with. Simple evaluations can be a starting point of reflection to understand the different ways we are "smart." As an educator, I can draw upon students' strengths to best make groupings of students for projects as well as helps students to find ways to be successful in their work. I like this multiple intelligence test because it provides an easy-to-read graph. I also recommend teachers take it and share the results with the students as a way to model knowing oneself.
