You will be creating a poster featuring the one and only...YOU!
You have been provided with a brain (well, a drawing of one.) You will have some time in class to have the outline of your head traced, by using the shadow from the overhead projector. This tracing will serve as a template for the model of the brain you will create. I have paper available for $0.25 per sheet, or you can go to Play Time and spend more money.
Outline or draw each of the sections of the brain indicated below. Label each area and include a visual to explain the function of the area. For example, the temporal area could include a picture or drawing of the ear. Each area will also need a brief, accurate description of its function. There's a lot that needs to fit on this poster, so plan accordingly.
Be creative; the more interesting posters will decorate our classroom for many months.
Your poster will be graded with the following in mind: picture connectedness and creativity, function descriptions, part location, overall creativity and visual presentation.
Required elements: thalamus, hypothalamus, hippocampus, amygdala, corpus callosum, pituitary gland, cerebellum, cerebral cortex, the four lobes of the brain, motor cortex, somatosensory cortex.
Out of 75 points. Due Tuesday, October 11 for C and E Blocks. Due Wednesday, October 12 for G Block.
Heads up: Your Chapter 2 test will be Wednesday, October 12.
