  1. The Brain Enduring Understanding: The brain is the control center of the body. The numerous sections of the brain carry out specific tasks that function in maintaining homeostasis.

  2. Essential Questions: What are the major parts of the brain? SC.912.L.14.26 : Identify the major parts of the brain on diagrams or models.

  3. Bellwork • Examine the diagrams below. Do you think this is a survivable injury? Why or why not? Please explain.

  4. External Features of the Brain

  5. External Features of the Brain Cerebrum Brain stem Cerebellum

  6. The Brain Stem Brain stem

  7. What does the light blue shaded organ refer to in the below diagram? • Cerebrum • Medulla oblongata • Pons • Spinal cord • Cerebellum

  8. What does the green shaded organ refer to in the below diagram? • Cerebrum • Medulla oblongata • Pons • Spinal cord • Cerebellum

  9. Lobes of the Brain

  10. Based on the diagram, damage to which of the following lobes would result in hallucinations? • Frontal • Parietal • Temporal • Occipital

  11. Based on the diagram, damage to which of the following lobes would result in mood changes and/or social differences? • Frontal • Parietal • Temporal • Occipital

  12. So did this man survive?

  13. YES! You’ll learn more about Phineas Gage’s chilling tale is for homework tonight! http://www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/NEJMicm031024 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FrULrWRlGBA

  14. Brain Cap Activity: Step 1 • Mark the lobes we discussed on your cap with a permanent marker. Be sure to include the cerebellum.

  15. Brain Cap Activity: Step 2 • Map the functional areas as seen in the diagram below with different colored permanent markers. The brain is both anatomically and functionally segregated. Different function are located in particular regions of each lobe.

  16. Brain Cap Activity: Step 3 • Wear and share! • Extra credit for students who teach their parent or friend about the brain and then email me a picture of them wearing your cap!
