Psychology "Do Now" Writing Prompts & Slides

You will have a writing prompt for every unit during the school year. This product includes lifetime access to updated links in my Google Drive. Every product is in a format that can be edited.

Sample Prompt: Do you think the time will come when we will be able to predict almost everything about someone by examining their DNA on the day they are born? How significant is your DNA to who you are? (Biological Bases of Behavior Unit)

I recommend a think-pair-share strategy to start class. The students should come into class and look for the prompt posted on the board (slides). The students should write their responses independently and think through their prior knowledge/opinions. Then students share their responses with their neighbor/group (gets students engaged/participating). The next step is to have the whole class discuss and transition into the lesson.
