The Adolescent Brain

August 15th (A day) and 16th (B day)

Learning Targets: 

• I can cite several pieces of text-based evidence to support an analysis of informational text. 
• I can determine the meaning of unknown technical words.
• I can explain the different parts of the brain and neuron.

Classwork:   

Today we will continue to learn about the teenage brain. We will begin with a play that demonstrate the job of each part of the neuron.  Here are the definitions for each part of the neuron. We will also learn about the different parts of your brain.  This goes along with the diagram of the brain we put in our notebooks.  

Next we will begin the brain development anchor chart.  This will help track your learning of the adolescent brain.  Fill in what we have learned from the two articles we have already read: Teen and Decision Making: What Brain Science Reveals +

The Teen Brain-It’s Just Not Grown Up Yet-also a podcast

Homework:  

Our last job today is to read, "What's Going on in Your Brain?" by Linda Bernstein. Complete the neurologist's notebook #2.
