MULTIPLE INTELLIGENCE
IN THE MUSIC CLASSROOM
This session will outline a typical
elementary music lesson and discuss
and demonstrate how the same
material can be used to strengthen
and develop music intelligence as
well as other intelligences. I will share
strategies and techniques that will
support the Music curriculum and
the Verbal Linguistic and Logical
Mathematical curriculums, as well. By being aware of
the impact Music has on the other intelligences, we are
better able to nurture the whole child in our quest to
help them become musical.
Lillie is known for her work with young children
and for instilling a love of music within them. This
is her twelfth year at the University of Hartford
Magnet School and her thirteenth as a director for
