Optimistic Easter

Hope everyone had a great long weekend!  Last week in Health and Career Education, we discussed Optimism.   The newest research shows that pessimistic thinkers are unable to access their prefrontal cortex fully, because those negative thoughts engage the amygdala.  This term, we are going to focus on positive self-talk, and thinking on the bright side of things - practicing optimism.  Try it for a week, and you will see the difference!  Here's a little song that really fits our view of learning in Division 2:  The Power of Yet
