What? What is intelligence and the different kinds of intelligence? There are many different kinds of intelligences, learning disabilities, special needs, etc. We discussed and debated classification in the classroom, and we watched a video on turret's.

So What? We need to be aware of them so that we can help our students in each class, and make sure that they can succeed. It gave a different perception on classification in the classroom.

Now what? Now that I am aware of all the different kinds of intelligences, learning disabilities, special needs, etc., I need to study them and become more aware of each, so that I can be confident in each area and help the students to the best of my ability. Also, I think that classification in the classroom can help in certain ways. There are many ways to do it, were it be just the teacher and staff knowing, teacher, staff, and students, knowing, and etc. I agree to talk with the parents and discuss options, and see what they are comfortable with and what the student is comfortable with.
