"If parents (and teachers) want to give their children a gift, the best thing they can do is to teach their children to love challenges, be intrigued by mistakes, enjoy effort, and keep on learning". @CarolDweck #Grit#Resiliency#FixedVersusGrowthMindset https://t.co/Ct6wlA2Hz1
Second day of orientation just as good as the first. The Gray cohort now has their own rock, paper, scissors champ. The question is what will happen when the two champs eventually collide? @brucebuffer you available?
Crowned a socially distanced rock, paper, scissors champ for our Maroon cohort, toured the building, and finally met each other in person. Great orientation today!
There were connection issues, there was confusion, there was frustration, there was uncertainty.
But there was also new connections made, there was flexibility, there was rolling with the punches, and, most importantly, there were SMILES.
Thank you, Team 6-5.

@BCTeam65 @6abcadamjoseph Fantastic! When high pressure is over you it squeezes moisture out of the atmosphere, clearing our the skies. But, low pressure, without the weight of the atmosphere, allows air to rise. When air rises, moisture condenses into clouds and, sometimes, rain and snow.
@BCTeam65 @CecilyTynan Very cool to see. Always remember high pressure means happy weather and low pressure means lousy weather. Winds always travel from high pressure to low pressure
