My Learning Smarts 2017



















To begin this school year I took the learning smarts test. My highest were all quite similar, so I have five. My highest was musical, with 88%. I think that I came out like this because I love music, and I've always been able to use music to help me remember something, and whenever I listen to music when learning, I always get it done really quickly and stay at a good pace.

My two second best smarts were Visual-Spatial and Bodily-Kinesthetic. I think that I am Visual-Spatial because I love art and planning things out in my head. Sometimes I use pictures to help me remember to do things. I like to use pictures and crafty ways to present things to others.
I think I am Bodily-Kinesthetic because I like to act, and I also really enjoy dancing. I really enjoy the drama activities we sometimes do. I also really enjoy making up games to play outside with my family. I also really enjoy netball.

My two third best are Logical-Mathematical and Intrapersonal. I think I am Logical-Mathematical because I am very good at problem-solving, and generally enjoy math. I like to do puzzles, and calculate numbers in my head. I think I am Intrapersonal because I get a lot of work done when I am on my own. I am very ambitious, and I love to set goals for myself. I like to reflect on my learning and think about what changes I need to make to be better.

I think that compared to last year, my smarts have changed a bit. Last year I was Musical, Logical-Mathematical, and Intrapersonal. Now, this year, I am Visual Spatial and Bodily-Kinesthetic. Last year, these were two of my least strong.

I really hope that this test helps with my learning and that my teachers will use this information to help me with my learning.
