1. Why do you think knowing how you learn is important? 

2. Currently, what do you think helps you best learn (notes, listening, group work, etc.)? 

READ THE FOLLOWING AND THEN TAKE THE TWO QUIZZES!

What are Multiple Intelligences?
	It has been claimed by some researchers that our intelligence or ability to understand the world around us is complex. Some people are better at understanding some things than others. For some of us it is relatively easy to understand how a flower grows but it is immensely difficult for us to understand and use a musical instrument. For others music might be easy but playing football is difficult. Instead of having one intelligence it is claimed that we have several different intelligences. These are listed below: Kinaesthetic – Body Smart Linguistic – Word Smart Logical – Number Smart Interpersonal – People Smart Intrapersonal – Myself Smart Musical – Music Smart Visual/Spatial – Picture Smart Naturalistic – Nature Smart

Take the multiple intelligences test below. Print your results and staple or tape them into your catalyst journal. Most importantly, write down the code given to you at the end of the test in your journal.
