🍼👶 Sock babies took over our high school this week! AP Psychology students are diving into developmental psychology by taking care of their very own sock babies for a whole week.
This hands-on project challenges students to apply what they’re learning about changes throughout the lifespan. They’ve been busy with daily wellness check-ins, babysitting logs, and reflecting on their experience through a paper. 📝
And yes, there’s been plenty of crying! If their teachers thought their sock babies needed attention, the students had to step in and soothe them. 👶🧦
