Parts of a Neuron Song
Written by JoAnn Regruto, BBB Trainer, April 2012
(sung to The Farmer in the Dell)
Neurons have 4 parts
Neurons have 4 parts
The brain develops billions; the neurons have 4 parts
The cell body is in command (crown on head)
The cell body is in command
The brain develops billions; the neurons have 4 parts
The dendrites take in info (use tree branch)
The dendrites take in info
The brain develops billions; the neurons have 4 parts
The axon sends out info (use Silly String)
The axon sends out info
The brain develops billions; the neurons have 4 parts
Synapses are the gaps (person holds ring made of pipe cleaners)
Synapses are the gaps
The brain develops billions; the neurons have 4 parts
Myelination protects it all (wrap arms in toilet paper)
Myelination protects it all
The axons are protected and the neurons have 4 parts
