This project is all about helping students become more engaged n the classroom after feeling so disconnected from school as we have been in and out of in-person learning for a few years now.
The toy sorting and blindfolds will be used during the sensation and perception unit where students will do a variety of stations that test different senses.
Instead of just reading about the different senses, this will give them first-hand experience of each of the senses and will get to report back about what they felt or thought about with each station.
The legos are used for students when learning about research methods. When conducting experiments in psychology, it's important to understand replication and how to replicate an experiment. Students get into groups of four and create anything they want with the legos. The catch is that they must make a list of instructions for another group to replicate what they have created. The objective is that students learn the importance of how to set up an experiment so that it can be replicated.
The bobo doll is to be used during the social learning chapter. Students will walk into the class and observe a student punching the doll, and then we will see how likely it is that other students conduct the same type of behavior to each other about observational learning.
Lastly, the pocket constitutions are for my government classes to give each student their own copy. Students receive their copy to truly learn to appreciate the rights and freedoms that we have and understand the importance of the words written in that document.
