    Flowers for Algernon

    Multiple Intelligences Project


    Project Options:
    Verbal/Linguistic (Word Smart)ABC poster. Create a visual display that lists every letter of the alphabet. For each letter of
    the alphabet, you will write one or more complete sentences about the story (no simple
    sentences allowed). Each sentence must start with the specific letter of the alphabet you are
    on. (i.e., A- Algernon triples his intelligence because he undergoes an experimental brain
    surgery.) Your display should be illustrated in such as a manner as to reflect your
    comprehension of the story and its themes.
    To present: You will read through your sentences to the class.
    Logical/Mathematical (Numbers and Reasoning Smart)Create a 4-D maze, similar to the one used by Algernon in the story. Administer the maze to
    15 different people and time how quickly they finish the maze (they will use a finger to
    complete the mazes). Create lots of dead ends, so it wont be too easy. Create a
    comparative graph/chart of each person's times and find the mean, median, mode, and
    range. Include the maze, your comparative graphs/charts, and a summarization of your
    findings.
    To present: You will present your findings and have two classmates run the maze to see who
    wins. Each maze can be placed on poster paper, but need to be made out of 2 different
    materials.

    Visual/Spatial (Picture Smart)Create an inkblot (poster sized) and write a 600+ word creative story about what you see in
    the inkblot.
    To present: You will display the inkblot and read your story in class.

    Bodily/Kinesthetic (Body Smart)Create a script for an important scene in the play. Perform a puppet show or skit using that
    script. Your show should have puppets, costumes, and a stage. The show/skit show must
    last at least 5 minutes.
    To present: You may either perform this live in class or pre-record and play for class.

    Musical (Music Smart)Write song lyrics about the main plot of "Flowers for Algernon." You may base your song's
    style off a popular song and set your song to the beat of that song. The song should have a
    chorus and at least three versus.
    To present: You will perform the song for the class. This can be just reading it.

    Interpersonal (People Smart)-

    Write two letters, one as Charlie writing to Ms. Kinnian and one as Ms. Kinnian responding to
    Charlie's letter. The letters need to take place after Charlie has left New York. Each letter
    must be at least 300 words and represent the tone, style, and intellectual level of each
    character.
    To present: You will read each letter to the class.
    Intrapersonal (Self Smart)Write a 600+ word perspective diary from another character's viewpoint. Choose any dated
    entry from Charlie's journal and rewrite that same entry from another character's point of
    view.
    To present: You will read the entry to the class.

    Naturalistic (Nature Smart)Research organizations that are for OR against animal testing. Create a flyer for one of the
    organizations. Include important information like founder(s), mission statement, logos,
    events, etc
