Teacher's Guide
Purpose
Students further develop observation skills by examining the different ways people interpret their environment and by completing mini-research projects. They then help improve their research subjects' lives by creating enrichment materials for them. Students also learn about multiple intelligences and complete a self-assessment to discover their primary strengths.
