Multiple Intelligences

Multiple Intelligences is the idea that people are smart in different ways—not just in the traditional "book smarts" sense. Instead of one kind of intelligence, there are many, like being good with words (linguistic), numbers (logical-mathematical), music (musical), art (visual-spatial), movement (bodily-kinesthetic), people (interpersonal), yourself (intrapersonal), or nature (naturalistic). In short, it’s about recognizing that everyone has their own unique strengths and ways of learning.
