Maximizing Instructional Time PlPla Focusing on the End Brain-body Connections Activity Allow me to teach you 15 facts about the brain using your body. Please stand up. Clasp your hands together Much like your hands, the brain weighs 3 pounds. But the brain is more the consistency of Jell-O. Wiggle your thumbs This represents the frontal lobe of the brain where problem-solving and higher-level thinking occur. In fact, people often hit themselves in the frontal lobe to stimulate the dendrites when you they can’t think of something. Hold up two fist Just like the hands, the brain has two hemispheres – Left & Right Left Hemisphere Right Hemisphere -Organized -Creative -Structured -Musical -Logical -Artistic -Analytical -Global -Verbal -Emotional -Intuitive Clasp your hands together The theory of left and right hemisphere is outdated. What we know about the brain is that the two hemispheres are constantly talking back and forth. Wiggle your fingers Your fingers represent the Corpus Callosum. Corpus Callosum – the muscle over which the two hemispheres talk. Partner Up: Show & Tell The Neuron • When you are born, you are born with onehundred billion neurons. • These are your memory cells. • In most cases, you don’t grow new neurons. The Neuron • Even though you can’t grow neurons, you can grow dendrites. • Dendrites are the connections at the end of neurons. • Every time you learn something new, you grow new dendrites. Hold your dominant arm up. Your arm, including your hand, is a neuron. If your arm is a neuron, then what are your fingers? The Neuron • The palm of your hand represents the cell body of your neuron. • Your arm represents the axon of your neuron. • Dendrites do not talk to other dendrites. • Dendrites talk to axons but they do not touch since the message has to cross an area called the synapse. • There is a substance that forms on the axon called myelin. • Myelin is like ‘crisco’. Partner Up: Show & Tell Just Facts: List 15 facts about neurons Clean Your Plate 1. You have 100 billion of these 2. Problem solving and higher order thinking 3.

Purposes for Strategies used as a Culminating/End Activity • Reflect on the content of the lesson Journal responses, Facts in Five, 1-3-6 • Evaluate predictions • Examine questions that guide reading • Respond to text through discussion Save the Last Word, Discussion Web • Respond to text through writing Exit Cards, Journal Responses, Graffiti • Retell or summarize Journal Responses, One pager, Facts in Five, Paired Summarizing, Ready, Set, Recall • Assess learning Exit Cards, Facts in Five, Four corners
