  7. R2Z Brain & Motivational Activity We want to put the motivational activity at the very beginning of our teaching.  The parts of the limbic system in our brain are involved in motivation and emotion.  We want to "turn it on" or "ignite it" with a motivational activity so that students respond with positive emotions to be ready to learn.  On the other hand, if we overwhelm them with too much information or difficult vocabulary at the very beginning, they could develop negative emotions such as being overwhelmed in the limbic system that could shut down their brain.
