Getting to know learning styles

Instead of focusing on differences, I think it is important to see our classroom as being filled with an eclectic mix of learning preferences. Just like when we go to a restaurant, we are all hungry but some of us prefer fish over steak. So, I think it is important to figure out early on what type of instruction our students prefer. I found this fun, interactive Multiple Intelligence Snowflake. Try it and tell me what you think. Is this something you could use in your class to understand the learning preferences of your students?
