8 Intelligences Curriculum

Our preschool is built on Dr. Howard Gardner’s Theory of Multiple Intelligences, which recognizes that children learn and express knowledge in many ways

We focus on 8 core intelligences:

✏️ Word smart (linguistic)

📊 Number/reasoning smart (logical-mathematical)

📸 Picture smart (spatial)

💪 Body smart (bodily-kinesthetic)

🎵 Music smart (musical)

🗣️ People smart (interpersonal)

🧠 Self smart (intrapersonal)

🌳 Nature smart (naturalistic)

Through daily MI (multiple intelligence) stations, students rotate through fun, hands-on activities that highlight these strengths while gently encouraging them to build skills in areas that may not come as naturally. This balance fosters confidence, perseverance, and a lifelong love of learning!
