Final Project!

marykategorham

Hi everyone! As we end this semester, my partner Kaitlynn Castro and I have finished our project on The Great Gatsby. Here, we are talking about how Gardner’s Multiple Intelligences connect with the story as well as the movie. We have provided some clip examples that can also be found in the book. The reason for this, is because we thought it would make a lot more sense to students if they had access to how the characters were feeling and what they were doing in the moment. It is true that books can express emotion more than movies can. … Continue reading Final Project!

Hi welcome to our final project! Sydney and I will be discussing the childhood novel, “Blubber,” by Judy Blume. With our lesson plan, we will talk about the book and the deeper meaning. Our goal is for the students to find and understand the deeper meaning of the story. We will guide them by presenting them with a video explaining the multiple intelligences, which will help them identify what they are and engagement questions about the book. We hope the students are able to understand the novel and Gardner’s Multiple Intelligences by the end of our lesson plan! https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1cj-h1u4N22i3ULQjEM9XC9PAX-90YGDPw6yMBHW24Lg/edit#slide=id.p Madie’s … Continue reading Final Project

Third Blog Post

marykategorham

Welcome to my third blog post! In our second blog post, Kaitlynn and I explained how we will be discussing F. Scott Fitzgeralds, The Great Gatsby. We are aiming to gear our lesson plan towards middle and high school students. We chose this age group because there is so much important history that was occuring at the time period of which The Great Gatsby takes place in. The roaring twenties was such an important time in American history and one that I have learned about in depth, throughout my years of schooling. The Great Gatsby is a book gearned towards … Continue reading Third Blog Post

The Great Gatsby

kaitlynncastro

As this century’s version of the Roaring 20s is vastly approaching, here is a recap on what our last blog post addressed! In our last blog post, we introduced the idea of teaching The Great Gatsby by F. Scott Fitzgerald to students at a middle and high school level. We chose the book because we thought it was a great representation of what the Roaring 20s looked like one hundred years ago. Although it does not address all the events that occurred during this time period, it does get a little more personal. Essentially, we chose this book because students … Continue reading The Great Gatsby

Third Blog Post

sydneyabate

Hi everyone! Welcome back to my blog!  Madeline and I talk about a book named “Blubber’ by Judy Blume. In this book the author targets the common theme of bullying. This book is very significant to today’s society as bullying is a very common issue today. “Blubber” targets elementary school children in 4th and 5th grade. We think that a great way to teach students about this book would be through powerpoints, videos and comprehension questions. This project allows us to teach students a very valuable lesson in a fun and entertaining way. Teaching them this way will allow them … Continue reading Third Blog Post

The Tell Tale Heart

bridaniele

The short story “The Tell-Tale Heart” is by Edgar Allen Poe. It is a very morbid story, but Poe always leaves behind an important lesson for all of his readers. In this story the message is that guilt can ruin us and destroy people. It is better to be honest and set your guilt free. As a future educator it is part of my job to constantly keep the children engaged. I know that this can be a difficult thing for teachers to deal with and that is where the mutiple intelligences come in. Every student learns in a different … Continue reading The Tell Tale Heart

Self-Reliance

linm25

Hi, my name is Michelle Lin and welcome to my second blog post! For my lesson plan, I would be using Ralph Waldo Emerson’s Self Reliance. Emerson is I would focus on 5th -6th-grade students who’re about to enter middle school. This type of literature is great because it focuses on Realism. It also defines individualism, which most fifth to sixth graders will start to experience as they soon transition into middle school. While reading this text, students will learn to trust their intuitions and believe in themselves. For this lesson, I would be using 3 of Gardner’s intelligence. In this lesson, … Continue reading Self-Reliance

Blog post #2

Hi, I’m Gabby Barbera and welcome to my second blog post! It has come to the point in our Research Project where we must finalize our desired topic for the project. I tossed around many ideas but then came to a conclusion about young children. One thing they love to do is draw. Not only does it keep them occupied, but it gives them an outlet to be creative and explore their own imagination. I’ve found that Dr Seuss has particularly creative artwork in his children’s story books. My entire childhood I read Dr Seuss and have always loved his … Continue reading Blog post #2

Second blog post

sydneyabate

Hi! My name is Sydney Abate and welcome back to my blog post! The text that I will be focusing my research on is Blubber by Judy Blume. In this book they conduct two intelligences. These are interpersonal and intrapersonal. The interpersonal aspect comes in when the main character, Jill has to deal with being apart of something she does not want to be apart of. The intrapersonal aspect plays in when readers see how Jill struggles within herself and her conscience. I have chosen this book because Blume’s books are ones that teach lessons to readers. I find this … Continue reading Second blog post

Education Builds “Self-Reliance”

cameryncriscione

Hi everyone, my name is Cameryn Criscione and welcome back to my blog post! The text I will be focusing my research on is “Self-Reliance” by Ralph Waldo Emerson. I have chosen this text because Emerson’s work explores the ideas of how experiences shape our lives, how growth can be scary and painful, but also how it is necessary, and why it is essential to choose truth. I am gearing my teaching tool to fifth and sixth graders, depending on the state in which they live. I believe this lesson plan is best for the highest level of elementary school … Continue reading Education Builds “Self-Reliance”

The Great Gatsby

By Kaitlynn Castro and Marykate Gorham As we wrap up the final year of the decade, we are soon entering this generations’ version of the Roaring 20’s. In honor of this, we have decided to focus our final research project on The Great Gatsby by F. Scott Fitzgerald. The students we are aiming to teach this book to are middle and high school students. We intend on using interpersonal, intrapersonal and linguistics for Gardner’s components of intelligence. All three of these intelligences were used throughout the book, and we plan on explaining when these intelligences are present in the book. … Continue reading The Great Gatsby
