Felicity An American Girl Adventure Video Guide
This is a video guide to accompany the movie "Felicity An American Girl Adventure". I show this movie towards the beginning of the American Revolution Unit. It is probably my students favorite movie all year.
Fun Fact: The girl who plays young Felicity is now superstar Shailene Woodley from the Divergent Series and Fault in Our Stars. That makes it a little bit more interesting to the students as well since most are familiar with her as an actress. You could even make that a bonus question.

Opportunity Cost: The Hidden Cost of Everything
Every day, we have to make decisions, be it small, like trying a new soap, or huge, like moving abroad. Each such decision comes at a price. This price is the benefit we forego by not choosing the other option. Economists call these benefits “opportunity costs”. Although they are often less obvious and sometimes speculative, opportunity costs can be huge, therefore, learning about them makes sense! Watch our video to learn more about what opportunity costs are, how they work in real life, and ho

Fluid and Crystallized Intelligence
There are arguably two types of intelligence. Fluid intelligence is your ability to reason quickly. It relies on the ability to hold attention and benefits from a strong working memory. Crystallized intelligence is your ability to apply knowledge from prior learning that was stored in your long term memory. To illustrate how the two work together, we created a short fairytale – a story of a young man, who wants to save a princess that was captured by an evil witch.

Differential Association Theory: The Psychology of Criminal Behavior

His theory of "differential association" suggests that there are 9 tenets to learning criminal behavior — and that we learn it almost like we learn anything else.
