It is essential to have in your classroom so you are able to meet the needs of your students. All the students in your classroom have different things that they like to do, and with multiple intelligences you can provide stations that meet each childs needs. It is a great idea to plan activities that are based on multiple intelligences, and it will match the childrens attention span. Give each child what they enjoy doing most to see that it will keep their attention for much longer.
There are so many different ways to learn new things. If one of your students really like frogs but does not like to color pictures or read about frogs then you must find out what they really like to do to help them to learn about frogs. If you figure out that your students like math then you could have them count frogs and talk about them or you could go and visit frogs at the zoo with your class. I want to apply the multiple intelligence theory to my classroom. I know when I was beginning to learn things for the first time; it would help a lot to learn things in a way that I understood them better. I think it would help each child individually to learn and understand things in a way that the student would enjoy. Therefore making your classroom a fun place that each child can follow their own interest in a way that they will enjoy.

One of the best things that a scientist can do is think through the theories and hypotheses that people put out there. There is a lot of science out there that has to do with physics, and science is based on a lot of theories and hypotheses. I just hope my students can learn to see through this, and then to use this information to get better at what they are doing now.
One of the best things a scientist can do is look around at the scientific community and see what people think. That kind of thinking gives a greater sense of power than if the only people that had this knowledge were you. If they were thinking about things that they really liked to think about then they really would be better off, right? If this knowledge is being used to do something that interests you then you are doing it right! If you want better results in your curriculum then you should do a more research on any number of topics.

My other idea is to create our own courses out of the work of students and teachers. If we think about it and find ways to get students interested in science, it is pretty simple. We can do what we want with science. But it is not really feasible right now. Every little bit helps, because the students really like learning about things on the environment. If each child, by themselves or in a group with one student, has a child with their own interests then we have an avenue of possibilities. I would hope that for my students there would be different ways to do their science.
In my experience with the new students and teachers in my classrooms, their enthusiasm about science is not that different from what I see today in other areas of education. For example in my school after school I did a little bit of research on the biology and chemistry departments and had my students do experiments on how to deal with natural forces, of all sorts of things. They did not enjoy that much science, but a lot of it impressed them and made their heads spin. All of that stuff is interesting and they enjoyed it.

So one of the things you can do to ensure that the kids are able to have these experiences in their own homes is not only to try and change their behavior, but maybe to make things better for them. It really doesn’t take very much. I’m thinking about this, I was interested in this, so I went there, I said “Okay. That is awesome. I really like what I see here, I really like how I hear this, but I might also like this.” And at least so far I’m been able to teach the kids something a little bit differently. I know how this kids are behaving and you never want to just say to them, “Okay, I’m very excited about this. Let’s take this for our next lesson. How could I make this fun for your kids to do? How could I tell what would get them excited but not to let them become bored?”

We often encourage kids to find a way to make it fun. I think that the first time I started teaching, I felt more guilty than excited. I feel like
