Class Dojo: The Mysterious World of Neurons

This week we watched Episode 4: "The Mysterious World of Neurons" in our mindset series. As a class, we talked more about neurons and how we can grow connections between them. Then we shared ideas of how we have grown connections between our neurons! Some super second graders shared ideas like: try something challenging every day, keep trying, learn new things, talk to others, and work through new things.

Check out the video by following the link above, but try not to watch an episode with your child before we have viewed and discussed it as a class (I know it'll be tempting!)

After viewing the video together, ask your child these questions!

1. What part of the brain did you learn about today?

2. What did you do today to make connections between your neurons?

3. What is one big challenge you've faced that has helped grow your brain? What’s a new challenge you want to tackle now?
