Our 1st graders have begun our year-long unit talking about ways to have self-control, or self-regulation! They even know three main parts of our brain that help us regulate and what to do if we "flip our lid" (seriously, ask them to name the parts we've talked about - it is quite impressive they are remembering things like amygdala, hippocampus, and pre-frontal cortex!!!).
Here students were warming up their brains and using self-control to play the "Mirror Game". One student led and the other had to mirror their actions - using major focus and control to do so. I was impressed with how well they did - they truly looked like they were in a mirror!
