AP Psychology Brain Review- Have A Ball! Learning Target: Identify & explain the function of the structures included in the hindbrain, midbrain, and forebrain. Directions: Option 1 “Round Robin Brain”: Each student will be given a different brain part to represent (see cards below). Students will stand in a circle so that all class members can see the brain part each person is representing. A ball will start in the center of the circle, the teacher will read the first statement from the list of statements below, and the individual who represents the brain description which was read will retrieve the ball. The teacher will read the next statement and the student with the ball will determine which brain area is presented by the statement and throw the ball to the individual representing that respective brain part. The game will continue in this fashion as the instructor reads through each of the statements. Option 2 “Hot Potato”: A ball will be placed in the center of the two teams. Each team member will be identified with a card indicating the brain area they represent (see below). The teacher will read aloud each of the statements regarding different brain areas. The students from each team must determine which brain part is represented by the statement and send a representative to recover the ball. This process will be repeated for each statement. Note: Each of these aforementioned options can be made into a competitive game with students if the instructor would like to issue points for correct responses or for correcting an incorrect response. If there are fewer students in class than assigned brain parts, students can represent multiple brain parts. If there are more students in class than brain parts, duplicates can be made of some of the brain parts. 1 AP Psychology Brain Parts to be assigned to students Temporal Lobe Occipital Lobe Thalamus Pituitary Gland Corpus Callosum Cerebellum Hypothalamus Wernicke’s Area 2 AP Psychology Prefrontal Cortex Motor Cortex Pons Amygdala Frontal Lobe Association Areas Broca’s area Brainstem 3 AP Psychology Parietal Lobe Medulla Reticular Formation Cerebrum Cerebral Cortex 4 AP Psychology Statements for Instructor to Read: 1. Holds the ability to recognize faces - temporal lobe 2. Responsible for being able to see written words as visual stimulation - occipital lobe 3. Processes all incoming sensory information EXCEPT smell - thalamus 4. Lobe responsible for auditory processing – temporal lobe 5. Controls the endocrine system - pituitary gland 6. Bundle of axons connecting the two hemispheres of the brain that aids in communication - corpus callosum 7. Responsible for balance and coordinates voluntary movement - cerebellum 8. Responsible for the four F’s of feeding, fighting, fleeing and flirting - hypothalamus 9. Responsible for speech comprehension - Wernicke’s area 10. Lobe that contains the area mentioned in the previous question - temporal lobe 11. Area (not lobe) that controls higher order thinking and cognitive processing - prefrontal cortex 12. Controls the endocrine system by controlling the pituitary gland - hypothalamus 13. Controls voluntary movements - motor cortex 14. Controls sleep and dreaming - pons 15. Controls emotions such as fear, aggression and rage - amygdala 16. Filters and relays sensory information to the appropriate areas of the cerebral cortex - thalamus 17. Responsible for fine motor skills - cerebellum 18. Area that holds information regarding procedural memory - cerebellum 19. Area responsible for Impulse control - frontal lobe 20. Initiates smooth voluntary movement, balance, eye movement, and posture - cerebellum 21. Integrates sensory input with stored memory – association areas 22. Area responsible for speech production - Broca’s area 23. Lobe that holds the former area - Frontal Lobe 24. Responsible for language reception – Wernicke’s area 25. Responsible for maintenance functions including eating, drinking, sex and internal body temperature - hypothalamus 26. Lobe responsible for muscle movement - frontal lobe 27. Oldest and innermost part of the brain- brainstem 28. Area responsible for reasoning, planning, and judgment - frontal lobe 29. This area receives sensory input for touch, pain, temperature and body position - parietal lobe 30. This area holds information about reflexes such as sneezing, coughing and swallowing - medulla 31. The area plays a role in the reward centers of the brain - hypothalamus 32. The area is responsible for short-term and long-term planning - prefrontal cortex 33. Controls sleep and levels of arousal or attention - reticular formation 34. Responsible for survival functions such as heartbeat and breathing - medulla 35. This is made up of the axons of neurons and glial cells and is called white matter - cerebrum 36. This outer layer is made up of the cell bodies of neurons called gray matter - cerebral cortex 37. This area directs messages to the opposite site of the brain - brainstem 38. Damage to one of these areas my result in aphasia (a problem with processing or articulating speech) – Wernicke’s area or Broca’s area 5 AP Psychology Statements for Instructor to Read (continued): 39. Processes information from visual receptors - occipital lobe 40. Responsible for secreting the hormone for growth in the body - pituitary gland 41. Differences in this area distinguish humans from other animals - frontal lobe/prefrontal cortex/cerebrum or association areas. 42. Holds the somatosensory cortex - parietal lobe 43. This area is sometimes cut in patients with severe epilepsy to prevent the epilepsy from damaging both hemispheres of the brain. – corpus callosum 44. Damage to this area causes limited emotional responses - amygdala 45. These areas are located on the brainstem just before the spinal cord enters the brain - pons and medulla 46. This area is activated by incoming sensory information - parietal lobe 47. This area is activated when listening or humming a tune - temporal lobe 48. This covers the cerebrum - cerebral cortex 49. This area is responsible for outgoing messages directing movement to muscles - motor cortex 50. Responsible for filtering incoming information and sending along relevant information to the thalamus. - reticular formation 6
