New City School -- MI PROFILEIntelligence is “the ability to solve a problem or create a product that is valued in a society” (Gardner, Frames of Mind, 1983).
The Multiple Intelligences
Linguistic = sensitivity to the meaning and order of words
Logical-mathematical = the ability to handle chains of reasoning and to recognize patterns and order
Musical = sensitivity to pitch, melody, rhythm and tone
Bodily-kinesthetic = the ability to use the body skillfully and handle objects adroitly
Spatial = the ability to perceive the world accurately and to recreate or transform aspects of that world
Naturalist = the ability to recognize and classify the numerous species, the flora and fauna, of an environment
Interpersonal = the ability to understand people and relationships
Intrapersonal = access to one's emotional life as a means to understand oneself and others

Fall – Parent PerceptionsHow do you see your child pursuing the intelligences? In which intelligences is s/he most interested, active, and enthusiastic?This MI Profile captures parents’ perceptions about a student’s enthusiasm and interests in the various intelligences, based on how often s/he chooses to use them, not a student’s MI strengths (even though there may be a positive correlation between them). Students will complete a similar report on themselves in the winter, and teachers will share their perceptions in the spring.
