Multiple Intelligences

I learnt at the Multiple Intelligences workshop that we have cells and neurons in our brains which need to make connections. There are no connections in our brains for reading. You probably don't know what I am on about so I will tell you.
Scientists have done lots of research on people's brains and have found that we have no neurons connected in order for us to be able to read. We have to make those connections our selves. Connections for things like talking and walking were already made in our brain. For some people it is hard to make those connections for reading because they may be more visual smart than word smart. It might be harder for them to remember what words look like.
These are the smarts Linguistic, Logical, Interpersonal, Intrapersonal, Musical, Visual/Spacial, Naturalistic, Kinaesthetic .

We also learnt that the Multiple Intelligences test is not always correct because it depends on how you are feeling or how your interests and strengths change over time.
