In our Advanced Enrichment we learned about psychology. Psychology means how someone felt and how they changed their behavior and attitude. We learned about body language. Body language means how someone acted could tell other people by not speaking anything. We looked at the students and thought that students were introvert or extrovert people. Introvert means animals that don’t want to be loud they are just serene. Extrovert means animals that like to do fun things and be loud animals. Other things we learned were about optimism and pessimism. Optimism means thinking a good thing. Pessimism means thinking bad things like some people give up. We learned about positive and negative behavior. Example: when the mom played with the baby she was positive and the baby was happy, but when the mom was negative (it means the mom made the straight face) and then the baby was crying and trying to make the mom play with them. We learned about children’s behavior. When we gave chocolate to children and then we said if you eat chocolate it okay, but if children wait the teacher will give more chocolate. Some of the students ate the chocolate because they thought that the teacher was cheating them. Some of them waited because they wanted more chocolate to eat. We watched three videos. First video we watched was about two monkeys working together to open the box to get the foods to eat.​ Second video we watched was about human have two monkeys and they gave one monkey a grape and other monkey a cookie and how they behaved. Third video we watched was about two people played cards to cheat the monkey and how it behaved.

Our group learns about Algebra. We started to learn about negative numbers and positive numbers. First we started to draw a number line about negative numbers and positive numbers. The other thing we do is graphing numbers. It is the biggest thing we need to learn. Sometimes on weekends we have a homework to do from the teacher because we need to work hard on graphing it. Other important areas are solving hard problems. Some of the problems that we can not do we can ask the best teacher. He will not tell you a answer. He will show you a way to do it easier, faster and correctly. The goal is know all the key words and solve a lot of hard problems. Here are the key words: Coordinate Grid means the equation about graphing on the papers. Linear Equations mean that used Y=mx+b to graph on the graph papers. Slope means Y=mx+b and mx is a slope. Intercept means the place that one line and one line touch each other. Variables mean the letters the represent the number. Solve means to do the equation.

Our group learned about Anatomy. First we started with learning about skeleton. The first thing we did was watch the video about skeleton. It is one strategy to learn about anatomy. The things that we learned about bones are: the longest bone in the body is femur and the smallest bone in our body is inside the ears. It is called stirrup.Then some students drew a body of one student and labeled it on the papers. It is another strategy to learn anatomy.We started to learn about muscular system. Muscular talks about muscles. The things that we learned about muscles are: the biggest muscle in the body is glutenous maximums and the smallest muscle in the body is also inside the ears. It is called stampedes. Then we played some games to make us remember about muscles. The teacher called the words and the students pointed on student’s body. The teacher said that pointed to the femur so we pointed to the femur and she called the students one by one.Then the last week of the class we had a test. The test was about what we learned before like: skeleton and muscles. The test was very hard but the students tried their best. Our goal is to know a lot about anatomy words and to answer the hard test or to get a lot of score.
