Chapter 7: MI Theory and the Classroom Environment

This chapter addresses how important it is to have your room set up to be warm to all the types of intelligences. Just as a poor setting can hurt the learning process a good setting can enhance the learning experience. I like the idea of having areas set up for certain types of learners. There would probably be a way to rotate the types of stations also since a lot of kids will fall into many types of intelligence categories. In my class the only thing I know for sure is that I want tables instead of desks. I think the open space of the table lends itself nicely to a math class so you have room for your calculator, notebook, book, ruler, or anything else that is being used in that days lesson. Other than that I will try to make my room inviting to all students and try to change it up depending on the material we are covering.
