We always wonder what impact Focus on Basics is having. Can you share more specifics: what were you teaching? What did you do? What was the reaction of your students? Has anyone else tried out "multiple intelligence"-related activities? Barbara Garner, Focus on Basics >>> <Mkenned99@aol.com> 08/19 9:31 AM >>> The other night when my parenting class was over and the families were all gone a colleague came back to my classroom and exclaimed, "This classroom is a MESS!." There were papers, markers, playdough, magazines, scissors and glue strewn over the floor and tables and writing all over the chalkboard. (If my colleague had come into the classroom 30 minutes earlier he may have said it was noisy, chaotic -- a mess!) I took his comment as a great compliment and said, "Yes -- It's a disaster-area. It was a great class!" My students thought so, too. Thank you to the authors of the FOB issue on multiple intelligences. I might never have had such a "messy classroom" without your support!
