  10. Hey girl, here are my suggestions: • Since this set is fairly simple, I would love to just add pictures of Wundt, James, Darwin, Watson, Skinner, Maslow, Rogers. You know the big ones related to history. • Also, some pictures of Legos on the game break slide would be great as this is when we will do the that exercise. • Please delete this slide when you are through making changes.
