Multiple Intelligences, What are they? Have you ever wondered how your child learns? Or even what is the best way for your child to learn? Some children struggle with just reading and not math. Some struggle in math and not reading. How do you help the child who struggled in both? Have you ever wondered what is the best way for my child to learn?
Every child does learn differently. As a parent of four children, I could tell each one learned at their own pace and their own style. As I was in college and reading Multiple Intelligences in the Classroom by Thomas Armstrong (2000) I learned there are many different ways to help support children within the classroom setting.
As I expand my business to include courses this is one of the areas I will be sharing. I will be including how to best help your child based on Multiple Intelligence’s.
