Activities in the classroom When performing activities in the classroom, I believe that existential intelligence, logical and verbal intelligences are the most difficult to grasp. However, there is a handful of people who have skills in other intelligences such as kinesthetic and musical. In order to teach the students in an intelligence they have no skill in, using their strengths is the best and most efficient way. If this method does not work, then leisure in ways to complete the activity should be exercised. Forcing a student to learn through a specific way will only damage the intelligence.

Classroom Assignments Trying to adjust a course to the needs of an individual is very difficult. A student has many multiple needs at a time. However, one could use a students strength in order to teach them new information. Through their skills would probably be the most easiest way to reach the students. For example, if there was a musically talented person but had no verbal/linguistic skills, you could use the music in order to teach the verbal. One way could be to use singing. Part of musical talent is memorizing words.

Graduation Requirements Even if a student is skilled in one field and not in another, they should not be discriminated for it. However, knowing the basics of most of the intelligences should be expected. It is a question of whether or not one should be skilled in all intelligences.
