A discussion was held on the physical aspect of smiling, with Rinker informing the group that it takes 37 muscles to frown and only five to smile. Each class member smiled at someone in the school’s hallway and reported back. Results were graphed and the survey indicated that most people will smile back when someone smiles at them. After the project the class concluded that a smile is the happiness inside one coming out and smiling makes one feel better.
