Taking
as a starting point Howard Gardner's theory of multiple intelligences,
we will examine how tapping into our students' visual/spatial intelligence
can become another entry point for teaching literacy. We
will use Microsoft Paint, images from websites, and the digital
camera to explore different ways of coming to understand a literary
work.
