to lesson planning. We’ll identify the
most common intelligences and
look at how to weave different skills
into the fabric of a single lesson
plan. We’ll share activities which appeal
to the intelligences often neglected
in the language classroom,

we won’t be re-inventing the
wheel – just adjusting the steering
and heading in new directions!
