This week, the hosts discuss one of education psychology's most commonly-taught theories: Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs. While the model for interpreting human needs has received plenty of criticism, it still serves as a useful tool for assessing often unseen factors that may contribute to a student's success, or her struggles. Kate learns some good news, and Chelsea has a warning about working with power tools.<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maslow%27s_hierarchy_of_needs">Maslow's Hierarchy</a><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Crucible">The Crucible by Arthur Miller</a><a href="https://www.va.gov/opa/speceven/memday/history.asp">History of Memorial Day</a>
