If the Shoe Fits . . .: How to Develop Multiple Intelligences in the Classroom translates Howard Gardner′s multiple intelligences theory into practical methods for classroom use. This excellent resource offers teachers information and "how-to" advice for identifying and developing student strengths.

As a ready-reference for classroom implemenetation, this book describes:

• Matching the student with each intelligence
• Using intelligences for problem solving
• Applying multiple intelligences to meet the challenges of special students
• Creating an environment for each intelligence
• Applying sample lessons and activities for each intelligence
