This is intelligence...
Henry wanted a ring pop that I had
hid (or so I thought) on the topshelf
of my pantry, I walked in
my kitchen to find him
climbing up the cupboards
to help himself.
Intelligence is the smarts that you have.

Intelligence is such a broad word. I like the definition that it is the ability to acquire and use knowledge for solving problems and adapting to the world. I have learned that you can not put a label on a students intelligence, we all learn in different ways and we need to be so careful in treating the fast learners that they are the most intelligent learners. We can think about things longer and it doesn't mean we are any less intelligent.

List strategies for developing each aspect of Emotional Intelligence that you can use in your content area.
1) Recognize own emotions- There are so many things to talk about in health that can bring up emotion. Stress is a big focus in health, sometimes teens may confuse anger and stress, or hunger and stress, or even sadness and stress. I think drawing how you feel is a great way to bring it up, just like we did in class.
2) Manage own emotions - Where do we turn for help when we feel like we have no one? Talk about suicide hotlines and discuss how we can always go to school counselors for help, or when we need to talk.
3) Self Motivation - Come up with a fairly simple exercise plan or good nutrition plan, something the students can succeed on so they can realize they can do hard things, they can accomplish little things which can lead to bigger things. Teach them about self efficacy - we are more motivated when we believe in ourself.
4) Recognize others emotions - Discuss bullying and why some choose to do that.
5) Handle relationships - discuss proper relationships and how we have healthy relationships, how we remove ourselves from unhealthy relationships. If students have healthy relationships they will be more successful and happy in life.
