put on any or all of the following skills. For examples, instead of teaching a map in

a conventional way, the task may be given to students to draw one so as to develop

their Spatial Skills; a number of maps thus drawn may be used for comparison so

as to develop Logical-mathematical Skills; a piece of write up may be prepared

on the same so as develop Linguistic Skills; Another task may be given on another

topic to act out stressing Bodily-kinesthetic Skills; A piece of poem or song may

perceptions (e.g., as an interior decorator, architect, artist, or inventor); involves

sensitivity to color, line, shape, form, space, and the relationships that exist

between these elements. It includes the capacity to visualize, to graphically

represent visual or spatial ideas, and to orient oneself appropriately in a spatial

matrix.

Bodily-kinesthetic Skills: Expertise in using one’s whole body to express

ideas and feelings (e.g., as an actor, a mime, an athlete, or a dancer) and facility in
