Students will first record on a data sheet what they have eaten in the last twenty- four hours. Then students will look at a food pyramid to discover what foods are healthy for the brain to be able to determine if they are properly taking care of their brain based on the foods they are consuming. (Healthy Habits) Synthetics Students will complete synthetics graphic organizer to come up with creative ideas as to how things relate to the brain. Students will be provided with a synthetic stem, which states, brain “the is like a machine because _____________________”. Students will complete the synthetic in order to express their knowledge of the brain in a creative manner. (The nervous system) Weight of The Students will use a trial, which will have the weight of an average brain on one side, to compare the weight of other objects on the other side. Students will be able to understand the exact weight of the brain (3 pounds on average) and be able to compare the weight with familiar objects of the same weight. (The regions of the brain) Did You Know? Students will look at character descriptions of famous people with impairments. This will give students an understanding of how people, which they look up to, function with brain impairments. (Brain damages) Type 1 Puzzle of the Students will trial together a puzzle of the brain, forming a completed brain with labeled parts. Students will then create their own illustrations of the brain and label the different parts by using the completed puzzle as a model. (Regions of the brain) 3-D of the Brain
