We Are Thankful

Guidance

Our guidance teacher Ms. Fisher has been teaching us about regulating our energy levels. We use the question "how is your engine running?" To gauge our levels. Too fast is when you have way too much energy, just right is when you have just the right amount of energy for the activity you are doing, and too slow is when you just don't have enough. Today we completed 4 different activities and compared our energy levels  after each activity. They were playing in shaving cream, using kinetic sand, blowing through a straw to move a cotton ball, and yoga. We found some helped to reduce our energy, some brought our energy level up, and some helped us get to "just right"
