relevant to everyday activities at school and home, and
in your students' community.
Theory of Multiple IntelligencesEach lesson in the guide notes the relevant intelligences from Howard Gardner's Theory of Multiple Intelligences. Teachers can use this information to assist them in accommodating the various needs and talents of their students. Washington’s Essential Academic Learning Requirements (EALRs)This teacher's guide is an integrated set of lessons based on the EALRs. The lessons address standards in the areas of reading, writing, communication, math and science. Learn more. AcknowledgementsThank you to our partners!
