Gardner's Multiple Intelligences Verbal Linguistic: Throughout this project the children need to read, comprehend, and write information about what they've learned. Logical/Mathematical: While the children are on the process page they will have directions that are in a sequential order. Visual/Spatial: These students will benefit greatly from this activity because they can see the map of New Jersey, zoom in and out on it, look at the pictures, and view the you tube videos. Bodily/Kinesthetic: Anytime a students uses the computer to manipulate the keys it helps these kinesthetic students to stay focused for a longer period of time. Musical/Rhythmic: During the two videos the children will be engaged in calm music while looking at pictures of Cape May and the Delaware Water Gap. Interpersonal: When the students are working in teams designing a map of New Jersey these students will be engaged the best because they can relate to people very well. Intrapersonal: Since an intrapersonal likes to think about themselves they would like the activity at the end of the project because each child will add a point to the map that they've visited. Naturalist: They would like to look at the landforms and rivers that are in their natural settings. Sense and Meaning This lesson deals with their own state and city that they live in, the students will be more likely to remain engaged in the activities. Their curiosity and excitement play a huge role in influencing the storage of the material in long term memory. Furthermore, the students are taking ownership over their own success. This level of involvement builds self-esteem and positive memories, which will forever be linked to the subject matter being taught. Bloom's Taxonomy Remember: The students will list the four regions of New Jersey. Understand: The students will describe the physical differences between each region. Apply: The students will place a point on the map in the correct region. Analyze: The students will compare and contrast the Ridge and Valley Region to the Atlantic Coastal Plain. Evaluate: Judge which region they liked best and why. Create: The students will create a New Jersey map that include cities, landmarks, and body of waters of each of the different regions in New Jersey. Gregorc's Learning Styles Concrete Sequential: The concrete sequential students will benefit from having detailed sequential directions. They will also like to learn facts about each city, town, or landmark in the regions. Abstract Sequential: The abstract sequentials would like to look at the map and determine for themselves what makes each region unique. Concrete Random: The concrete random will enjoy working independently when looking at the mappler site and answering the questions on their own. Abstract Random: The abstract random children will do great on working in a team setting in order to make a map of New Jersey. |
