 **Resource: Multiple Intelligence Activity Chart** [|**http://www.teachervision.fen.com/intelligence/teaching-methods/2204.html**] This is a great website that breaks down each multiple intelligence into a category. Under each category there is a list of activities to implement in the classroom that speak to each intelligence.
 * The following resources are helpful for educators differentiating instruction based upon student learning profiles. **

Jennifer's Comment: This is a useful site; it gives an easy way for teachers to incorporate different strategies to reach all learners based on how they learn. Definately a UDL supportive tool!

﻿Kristen's comment: This is a great resource for teachers when we need ways to differentiate for specific learning intelligences. The list is comprehensive and can be used at any grade level for ideas.

 **﻿Weathering, Erosion and Deposition:** [] [] ﻿I selected this site for my visual and auditory learners. It provides scientific experiments to show children how the processes work.

**Tiffany's Comment**: **Having students watch videos is a great way to address the learning styles of auditory and visual learners. Weathering and erosion are standards in our third grade curriculum, so these would be very useful in my classroom. It is often hard to find interesting videos that the students will be interested in, and I found these to be very informative and age-appropriate. This definetly helps to differentiate by learning profiles!**

[] Discovery Education developed this website full of videos, images, articles, and other media tools to differentiate instruction based upon student learning profiles. There are also teacher tools and differentiated assignments correlated with each video. Abby's comments: Discovery Education has become one of my favorite websites to use in my classroom. There are so many resources to choose from in all different subject areas. I really like that you can search by grade level, as well as full videos and only clips from videos.

Starfall
[] I am a long time fan of starfall.com. I was happy to discover a new version of starfall. This website meets the needs of visual learners with it's animated "shows", auditory learners by saying aloud everything that is on the screen, and kinesthetic learners by having students click on certain parts of the screen to animate it. This new version offers numbers, addition, subtraction, colors, phonics, and a word machine. The only downfall of this site is that only some of the activities are free. You have to pay a membership fee to access everything. This website is intended for K-2 students.

Renzulli Learning:
[] Renzulli Learning is a website that creates student profiles based on students' abilities and interests. Students answer questions under the categories of Interest Areas, Ability, Expression Style, and Learning Style. A profile is then created and put into a student portfolio where students can work on various enrichment activities.
