Indus
World School conducted a seminar on Multiple Intelligence on Monday - 20th April. ‘Every child possesses 8 types of
intelligence and the right age to tap each of these intelligences is up to the
age of 11 to 12 years. Language, Mathematical & Logical, Music,
Kinesthetic, Visual / Spatial, Naturalist, Interpersonal and Intrapersonal are
the 8 types of Intelligences’ said Mrs. Varsha Rebello, Senior Counselor, Indus
World School Group.
Giving
a piece of advice, Rebello said that parents should involve themselves with
their children during study and also share their academic activities. The
parents should always keep a dictionary while interacting with the children as
well as be members of library. “Understand the liking of your child and give
him/her scope accordingly, “she said. The issues like intelligence of child,
its definition, various aspects and long- term effects of these things on
children, also came up during the seminar.
The parents participated in the interaction
session and raised questions on the issue of children’s intelligence. Many
games were organized in the hall for the entertainment of children.
On
the occasion Mrs Namita Parthasarathy, HM of the school said that "IWS is
against rote learning. The curriculum is based on play-and-learn methodology
for students from Pre-primary to Class II and learning-by-doing for higher
classes and curriculum is designed revolving around these intelligences."
