Mrs. Gafner's 5th Grade Class

Welcome to your 5th Grade class at St. Ann's School. I teach emphasizing the Multiple Intelligence Theory. This means students have many ways of being smart, and I chose different ways of presenting information and lessons in recognition of the various modalities children use in learning.

Howard Gardner's Multiple Intelligence Theory suggests three main ways his theory can be used by educators:

  • Cultivating desired capabilities and talents in our students

  • Approaching a concept, subject matter, or discipline in a variety of ways

  • Personalizing education as we take human differences seriously

I expect we'll learn effectively, and plan on having a positive 5th grade experience with you this new school year! Let's get started! Check out the cool websites and helpful information linked to this site.
