Everybody has a different way of thinking and learning, everyone is unique. It is called Multiple Intelligences and there are supposed to be 8:
1. Verbal-linguistic
2. Logical-mathematical
3. Visual-spatial
4. Bodily-kinesthetic
5. Musical-rythmic
6. Interpersonal
7. Intrapersonal
8. Naturalistic

But not everyone has just one, we all have our own unique combination of intelligences. It can be a very positive aspect but it also can be a problem. That's because when a teacher does an activity, some children may not understand the subject because of the way it is done, while other would like it very much and would be very useful for them.
But when a pupil is learning with TPR, he uses 4 of the intelligences: verbal-linguistic, visual-spatial, bodily-kinesthetic and interpersonal. It means that there is a lot of possibilities that the pupil feels confortable with that way of learning and that he can really learn without many difficulties.

I think i learn best with multiple intelligences, because you use different ones in different situations. I like to learn through movement, which i think is why i like TPR so much
ResponderEliminarI think that is important to consider the multiple intelligences.... because each children is different, and each situation too. For this I think that you need each intelligence depending on the moment!
