4th Grade - Learning today began with the vocabulary word Instill which means to put a feeling or idea into someone's mind slowly. The explorer, Thomas Jefferson was inspired by his teachers to learn as much as he could about everything. For the warm up activity, students were to create a cantilever structure that would reach out as far as possible from a point on the table. The affective lesson focused on task commitment. Students had to create a certain design from Styrofoam and toothpicks in five minutes. The rest of class was spent learning about formations and creatures that are around hydro-thermal vents deep in the ocean.
2nd Grade - Today's lesson focused on affective thinking in particular how to deal with anger. After listening to the story Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day by Judith Voirst students wrote a friendly letter with suggestions to make a day go better.
