TP 4

Visual-Spatial

Intelligence

For this activity each student will be provided a copy of a short story to read to themselves and illustrate on their own. The copy of the story will have blank pages opposite the pages with the words for the student to create their illustrations and label the parts of plot. The illustrations must correctly depict what is going on in the story on the opposite page. Comment by Katy Sell: Nice job here! This is an appropriate visual-spatial intelligence activity that aligns with Ms. Allen’s reading lesson about plot. It is also age appropriate for her 6th grade students.

This activity meets the Visual-Spatial Intelligence by requiring the student to use important details from the story intertwined with their own ideas to create illustrations. This will allow them to exhibit their ability to understand the story through an outlet besides words (Ormrod & Jones, 2018). Comment by Katy Sell: This last part is crucial and is often missing from student submissions. She did a nice job explaining HOW this activity meets this specific intelligence. Comment by Katy Sell: The student includes research support that further strengthens her points/defense. One citation per intelligence is expected.
