Hello students and families! I made it to Washington DC today and I am truly enjoying the conference on the first day. Today we had three keynote speakers. The first speaker, Dr.Michael Posner, spoke about the development of the brain. He said our daily experiences shape our behavior. The second speaker today, was my favorite. Her name was Dr.Martha Bridge Denckla, and she spoke about our attention and things that we are attracted to. Dr.Denckla thinks we are usually great listeners when we are attracted to topics. I think, she is so right!I know that when I am really excited about a topic, I really am eager to learn about it. The third speaker, Dr. Patricia Quinn, spoke about girls and their attention spans. My first day is off to a super start and I look forward to the next two days. I took some pictures to share with you. I loved reading all of your questions. Over the next few days I hope to learn all about your questions and share my thoughts with you! Hope your Thursday was fantastic too! Miss you lots.
Love,Ms. Mehta
