Inner Brain Structures

Cerebellum Functions: coordination, balance

Brainstem Functions: most basic functions of life (reflexes, breathing, heart rate, sleep), connects the brain to the rest of the body through spinal cord

The Limbic System

Thalamus (part of Limbic System) Functions: relaying of sensory and motor signals, consciousness, alertness

Hypothalamus (part of Limbic System) Functions: body temperature, hunger, sexual behavior, thirst, fatigue

Hippocampus (part of Limbic System) Functions: formation of memory, spatial navigation

Cognitive Map

Amygdala (part of Limbic System) Functions: negative emotions (particularly fear, rage, and violence)

Brain Diagram Label the 11 structures we have learned Use color!

Exit Pass Write the following: One strength you have so far One weakness you have so far One thing you want to learn more about

Brain Structure Practice With your group, you must represent each structure we have covered (11 total) One color = cerebral cortex (divide into structures with lines) One color = inner structures/corpus callosum Check your brain in with me when completed!

Function Scenarios On a separate sheet of paper, write example scenarios for at least one function of each structure (skipping the corpus callosum) to have 20 examples total (will use some twice) Include the answer

Brain Functions Diagram Draw images/symbols to represent the functions of each structure (11 total) Label each structure USE COLOR to at least outline

Practice—half sheet Label each structure Provide ONE (1) function for each structure
