ACTIVITIES MULTIPLE INTELLIGENCES

We will work multiple intelligences in a dynamic and fun way through reading a short story and apart from this story we will make a series of activities for corners.

THE JUNGLE BOY

Many years ago in the tropical jungle was abandoned a baby, his name is Mowgli. It seemed that their survival would be impossible because it was too small to survive on their own. But Simba the lion found him walking around and felt tenderness to him and could not leave it abandoned. So that day he called a meeting  all the animals of the jungle to see that among all could care for him.

All jungle animals attended the meeting. Simba the lion  told to all animals that  he had been found walking a human baby and could not leave it there. He asked all the animals if they would commit to take care of him and accept as one.

At that time the group of giraffes neck up asking to speak and said it was crazy to keep this baby, which was very different from them and was not going to survive.

All animals started to comment what they said in agreement with them. But at that time the group of parrots raised their wings for speak and said to all the animals that the best idea would be that all take care him as he deserved because he was a living being. When Mowgli grow a little and be prepared animals will take to the city to live with the humans.

All animals seemed a good idea and thus began a debate on who would teach everything needed for  live in the city. As they could not agree Simba the Lion King ripped a large palm leaf and made a list of the different knowledge that the child had to have and the groups of animals were pointing their name on what they thought That highlighted.

Once all groups of animals were noted in the list, Simba the lion king read it to all animals for clear to them their role in their child's education.

-Simba the Lion King: Friends I will read you the final list so that all may know that thou have to teach Mowgli, when he turn 4 years old. You will have to prepare to date so that everything goes well, meanwhile hippo mom take care of him.

The list is:

1. Parrots  will have to show the rhythms of the jungle, our songs, different sounds and that exist on earth…

2. The giraffe  because they are great acrobats, fast, have great tactile sensitivity and are great dancers should teach their skills to Mowgli.

3. The lephants since they are very good storytellers will give him that knowledge.

4. Gorillas are very extroverted and will have to in charge of teaching relate to others and work together.

5. The Crocodiles that they are great thinkers have to help him know himself.

6. Tigers since they are good mathematicians and  know the calculation in perfection will be responsible for teaching this skill.

7. Lions We'll help him to understand the nature fauna and flora.

And now we can not waste time and we have to prepare to do the best that we can.

WORK PLACES

Now the teacher has to explain to the students that they are going to be animals of the history and students should be prepared to help the little Mowgli back to the city with humans. First the teacher make 6 groups and in a big classroomshe has to make different corners with activities that represent each of the groups of animals with their multiple intelligence, I mean, create corners to work multiple intelligences that appear in the story represented by animals.Pupils have to be every work corners for 15 minutes.

This work places are:

The parrots (Musical Intelligence): This represents the musical multiple intelligence, in this activity students will have to  sing and learn the song of the animals  playing various instruments that the teacher gives them.

This is the song:

Let's go to the zoo.

And stomp like the elephants do.

Let's go to the zoo.

And stomp like the elephants do.

Jump like kangaroos.

Let's go to the zoo.

And jump like the kangaroos do.

Let's go to the zoo.

And jump like the kangaroos do.

Swing like monkeys.

Let's go to the zoo.

And swing like the monkeys do.

Let's go to the zoo.

And swing like the monkeys do.

Waddle like penguins.

Let's go to the zoo.

And waddle like the penguins do.

Let's go to the zoo.

And waddle like the penguins do.

Slither like snakes.

Let's go to the zoo.

And slither like the snakes do.

Let's go to the zoo.

And slither like the snakes do.

Swim like polar bears.

And swim like the polar bears do.

Let's go to the zoo.

And swim like the polar bears do.

Let's go to the zoo.

And dance like the animals do.

Let's go to the zoo.

The giraffe (Spatial Intelligence): Will be in charge of moving to the rhythm of the song of the parrots through movement coorporal represent the song.

The elephants (Verbal Linguistic Intelligence): in this activity the students will be  responsible for inventing and continues the Jungle boy story and invent for it the end. In the corner there will be pictures of different characters and a card blank for students to make their small mural of history writing below each image that will happen.

The gorillas (Interpersonal Intelligence): They will have to work in groups analyzing the clues and guessing what animal it is, the teacher will provide them with clues and pictures of animals and the students have to  place the animals in the cardboard with their tracks.

The Crocodiles (Intrapersonal Intelligence): The activity relizaran crocodiles called "let's introduce ourselves to mowgli" in this corner  the groups have to complete  personal and indicidual form a tab on those who are that tastes better that you are given and do that it gives worse do. And then I show it to their classmates.

The Tigers (Logical Mathematics): In this part students have to complete a series of tabs. The first students will paint the animal that is not equal to the rest of the color and directed. The second will have to solve the operations and to the outcome paint everything one color.

The Lions(naturalist intelligence): will have to reconstruct the habitats of animals with different cutouts to be in a table as a farm, stables, palms, lianas of monkeys, a house. Different things on different places where animals live.

To end the activity, we should not forget that we have to reveal the end of the story. For those who want it will tell the other the end that they imagine and have prepared in the corner of the verbal Linguistic Intelligence.
