ACTIVITY 1. READING

Instruction: Read the following article. Then read the statements below and check ()
to answer True, False or Not given..

Multiple Intelligences in the Classroom

The Theory of Multiple Intelligences is a theory of intelligence that differentiates


it into specific (primarily sensory) modalities, rather than seeing intelligence as
dominated by a single general ability. This model was proposed by Howard Gardner in
his 1983 book Frames of Mind: The Theory of Multiple Intelligences.

According to Gardner, an intelligence is a bio psychological potential to process


information that can be activated in a cultural setting to solve problems or create
products that are of value in a culture.

Harold`s Garner`s theory of multiple intelligences has impacted education across the
United States. He has identified eight different intelligences to show that people
understand, experience, and learn in different ways.

Educators in the United States have carefully considered Gardner`s theory. Many
educators think that students gifted in the verbal/linguistic and logical/mathematical
intelligences do better in traditional classrooms than those with other intelligences.
This is because many traditional teachers teach by using textbooks, giving lectures,
checking written homework, and giving written texts. Their methods of teaching are
based on verbal/linguistic and logical/mathematical coursework.

Some teachers are changing the way they teach their students. These teachers think
that if students think and learn in different ways, then teachers should think and teach
in different ways. Their idea is to reach all students by using different intelligences in
their classrooms. Teachers who are trained in multiple intelligences might use a visual/
spatial activity to teach math. For example, they might ask students to take pictures
of objects as they study geometry. Teachers may have students with interpersonal
intelligence lead a discussion or teach new terms to other students. These teachers
feel that teaching to each student`s aptitude and getting each student to learn on his
or her own is more important than teaching course subjects in the traditional way.

Saving time with microwaves

Do you look for ways to save time, especially in the kitchen? One of the most
commonly used time-saving devices in homes today is the microwave. Because
using a microwave can cut dinner preparation time from two or three hours to
a half hour, they are used by many American families.

But microwaves aren`t just used in the home. They`re everywhere in restaurants,
trains, cafeterias, college dormitories, and lunch of break rooms in workplaces, for
example. It`s not surprising that microwaves are popular. Workers and students
can put leftovers from last night`s dinner in the microwave, heat them for a few
minutes, and eat a delicious lunch. Supermarkets also add to the convenience
of microwaves because they sell different types of microwaveable meals. These
frozen dinners are packaged in microwave-safe containers.

Some people have health concerns about food cooked in a microwave. Others
feel strongly that food cooked in a microwave does not taste as good as food
cooked in a regular oven. They say that using a microwave takes away from
the pleasure of cooking. Luckily for people who do not believe cooking is fun,
microwaves can make their lives a lot easier.

Carpooling

Cities have been dealing with rush hour traffic problems for a long time. One way they
have cut down on traffic jams has been to create High Occupancy Vehicle (HOV) lanes.

In these lanes, also known as carpool lanes, drivers must have


two or more people in their cars to enter.

Neighbors and co-workers often carpool to gain access to these


HOV lanes.

With fewer cars and more people in each car, carpool lanes have helped rush hour
traffic to run smoother and commuters to get their destinations faster.

In recent years, commuters have started a new kind of carpooling. In this type of
carpooling, a driver drives past bus stops or well-known parking lots and offers a free
ride to people he doesn`t know.

This is so that the driver and the passenger can take


the HOV lanes to work.

The passengers are called carpool slugs, and they


commute to work by slugging, or carpooling with
strangers.

Both drivers and the carpool slugs are happy with slugging. Every day, slugs save up to
$ 12 in transportation fares and parking fees. And drivers save up to $ 5,000 a year in
gas. In addition, both drivers and slugs save from 30 to 60 minutes of travel time daily.

After many years of slugging, carpool slugs and


drivers have become a community. Many of them
know each other and have become friends. They
look out for each other and may know each other
by face, if not by name. Slugging has become an
efficient way to commute in large cities and help
the environment. Fewer cars on the road means
less gas to pollute the air *
