Here is the AOTW #5. In addition to the reading you have to do a Multiple Intelligence quiz online. To do so, go to the following link. http://www.bgfl.org/custom/resources_ftp/client_ftp/ks3/ict/multiple_int/ Please print your graph and attach it to your AOTW. If you don't have a printer, take a picture with your phone to show me your graph.
