Smarter Than You Think!: Assessing and Promoting Your Child's Multiple Intelligences

Lynn Huggins-Cooper

4/5 ( ratings)

A child's intelligence is more than just his or her logical--mathematical and linguistic abilities--the qualities most often assessed in school. A child also can be gifted musically, artistically, and athletically, or have intrapersonal or interpersonal skills or an affinity with natural phenomena. Each type of intelligence is present, although in different strengths, and most children can become reasonably competent in each one, if given the necessary encouragement and instruction. With the help of this book, parents can assess their child's different competences and assist in correcting any weaknesses, so enabling their child to attain his or her full potential. There is also a range of fun-filled activities, which are designed to promote intelligence and academic ability but in new and child-friendly ways. Additionally, the book contains lots of information for parents both on administering and interpreting the tests and assisting with the activities as well as making sure that the home environment promotes learning.
