EXTRA THOUGHTS??
Please use the comment area to either ask more questions or answer some of these...
What are 2 examples or ways Mr. Sperry (the man who said the quote at the beginning of the post) would he feel that the educational and science world favor the left side brain folk more? Do we see this reflected in our own school system? If so, can you give a few examples? Perhaps, as a student this has worked in your favor, but maybe the student sitting next to you has struggled. what are two different types of educational experiences a left brainer could have vs. a right brainer?

1. You can be smart on the inside but no one could now it. Ms. Giunta used the example of Einstein. He was mute and couldn't read until he was around 10-11 years old and in the 5th grade. That shows that he was smart but no one knew until he was older and proved himself.
2. 4 Nonverbal Intellect examples are:
1. Art
2. Writing Poems
3. Acting
4. Emotional Intellect
3. I think that we use "nonverbal intellect" because we have to raise our hands to give an answer. That shows that we are smart but no one will know unless we give an answer in class.
4. I play Baseball
I play Football
I play Piano
