 * Musical:** You like the rhythm and sound of language. You like poems, songs, and jingles. You enjoy humming or singing along with music. You probably remember things well when they are associated with music or rhythm. Try to incorporate sounds into your lessons, such as using a familiar tune, song, or rap beat to teach spelling rules, or to remember words in a series for a test. Here are some other ways to use your musical intelligence:
 * Create a poem with an emphasis on certain sounds for pronunciation.
 * Clap out or walk out the sounds of syllables.
 * Read together (choral reading) to work on fluency and intonation.
 * Read a story with great emotion — sad, then happy, then angry. Talk about what changes — is it only tone?
 * Work with words that sound like what they mean (onomatopoeia). For example: sizzle, cuckoo, smash.
 * Read lyrics to music.
 * Use music as background while reviewing and for helping to remember new material.
 * Use rhymes to remember spelling rules, i.e., "I before E except after C." ||

 * Social:** You like to develop ideas and learn from other people. You like to talk. You have good social skills. Effective techniques of enhancing your learning using your social intelligence include taking part in group discussions or discussing a topic one-to-one with another person. Find ways to build reading and writing exercises into your group activities, such as:
 * Reading a dialogue or a play with other people
 * Doing team learning/investigating projects
 * Setting up interview questions and interviewing your family, and writing down the interview
 * Writing notes to another instead of talking. ||

 * Self:** You have a very good sense of self. You like to spend time by yourself and think things over. You will often take in information from another person, mull it over by yourself, and come back to that person later to discuss it. You like working on projects on your own. You often prefer to learn by trial and error. Effective techniques to enhance your learning include keeping a journal and giving yourself time to reflect on new ideas and information. More ideas:
 * Go on "guided imagery" tours.
 * Set aside time to reflect on new ideas and information.
 * Encourage journal writing.
 * Work on the computer.
 * Practice breathing for relaxation.
 * Use brainstorming methods before reading.
