We will be having a test on our psychology unit tomorrow. You will need to know about classical conditioning, the Stanford Prison Experiment, the Robbers Cave experiment, and how to design surveys, detect errors, and get a report published.
To practice go to your google docs and complete the conditioning presentation that I have shared with you. After you are done go to this website to practice with Pavlov’s dog again.

Put “Psychology rocks” on the top of your test tomorrow to get two points extra credit.

You have two tasks to complete today.
1. Go to this website to train a dog. You will need to train the dog to be nice and happy, then you will need to train it to get mad. Lastly, you will need to record the steps you took to train your dog to be happy and to be mad.
2. Complete your survey form on google docs. This needs to be done today.

We only had a day and a half of class last week, but this week is so chock full of activity that it’s making up for the lost days. In the 6th grade, we’re filming Lost in Time 4 (this may be the quickest an LIT production has ever been filmed) and we’ll be continuing our geology unit on Wednesday. I’ve started a mini-psychology unit with the 8th graders last week and today I introduced classical conditioning. There is a great site we used today with a game where you can condition Pavlov’s dog. In the 7th grade, we started a new unit on the Animal Kingdom and and we’re studying Japan, the Koreas, and China in Geography.
