Mrs. Whitworth's FAB 5 students are too cool for school...when it comes to brain breaks, that is! Usually for a brain break, the class dances or moves to songs on a free website called GoNoodle. However, at this point in their life, some of them feel that dancing and moving to "kid" songs are a little "kiddish". So now, their brain breaks consist of conundrums on Class Dojo. What is a conundrum? According to one of the students, a conundrum is a "sticky situation". A conundrum is actually a confusing and difficult problem or situation. The students are given a conundrum over various topics. Then after deciding what side of the "sticky situation" they agree with, they debate it with the other sides. It has proven for some very insightful and entertaining perspectives from a 5th-grader's brain.
