How mindful are you of your own thoughts? Do you often take time to intentionally reflect on your beliefs about the people and issues in your life and work?
Have you ever tried to intentionally change your thoughts about someone, even though you didn’t really want to (such as giving someone the benefit of the doubt)? Did you find that your feelings or behaviors toward that person changed at all?
Click the picture to follow along with the Dance Story Part I and think about the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. Then predict behaviors that result from having different thoughts and feelings.
Investigate: How can I change the roll of an object down a ramp?
Make a ramp. You can use cardboard, paper, wood, a ruler, a toy track, a book, a cardboard tube from paper towels or toilet paper, or anything else around your home.
Roll an object (ball, marble, can of food, orange, small stone, etc.) down the ramp. Observe.
Talk about:
What do you notice? How far does the object roll? How fast?
Is there something you can change about the ramp that will change how fast or far the object rolls? (You may want to try a different height, length, or material)
What do you think will happen when the ramp is changed?
Change something about the ramp. Roll the object down the new ramp and observe.
Talk about:
What do you notice? How far does the object roll? How fast?
How does this compare to the first ramp?
What makes an object that is rolling down a ramp move the fastest?
What makes an object that is rolling down a ramp move the farthest?
What new questions do you have?
