My name is Kelsey, and I am a junior. This past year I joined the girls swim team and I had an amazing time. I was able to meet a few new people, Randi would be an example. Let's just say I wasn't that good when I began, but I made a huge improvement. This means I can swim 100 yards without drowning. I also curl during the winter. Curling is a sport that has ran in my family for a long time. My grandpa coached an Olympic team and my Grandma was on an Olympic team. I don't plan on getting this competitive, but I hope I will become as good as they are. Along with sports I also enjoy reading and am a part of Jaguar Jazz.
I took psychology because I wanted to learn more about human behavior and it is different than my other classes. Through the nine weeks of this class I hope to learn more about why we act the way that we do, how to tell if people are lying, and how the brain works. I know that the left side of your brain is the logical side and the right side is the creative side of your brain. Also, I know about the cognitive development of humans and Piaget's theories from what we have learned in life's issues. We learned about the four stages of cognitive development and the fact that few high school students reach the fourth stage, which is abstract thinking.
