  1. How does Mr. Rodriguez’s use of a daily mantra relate to verbal anchoring? What is its effect?

In anchor learning the “use of repetitive verbal responses” (Shean, 2012, p1.1) puts the learner in a prepared mental state with the mantra’s repetitive nature it is actually putting students in the mind-set to begin their day of learning and open the avenue into the brain. Its effects are prideful encouragement as in the adrenaline rush a player receives when a chant is being shouted by fans. This mantra, if delivered correctly, will encourage the students.
