Today both AP and Honors classes were introduced the mighty neuron and the central nervous system. Over the next week we will map out how information travels from our individual neurons all the way through our body to perform any/all the behaviors that we are capable of making. The brain has always fascinated me and I hope that through our activities and discussions on the topic over the next week or two that all of my students will be as interested in the brain as I am. Here is a short video that has 10 really interesting facts about the brain that you may not have known...#1 is my favorite because it always happens to me and I never had a clue why.
Stay tuned for notes/powerpoints on the chapter that I will put up tomorrow. As for upcoming assignments, honors has a vocabulary quiz this Friday and AP will need to have read and completed the vocabulary for chapter 2 by Oct 1st.
