11. Cerebrum

12. Where is the cerebrum located?

13. Activity # 1: Brain puzzle
Roles of the Cerebrum
Activity # 1: Brain puzzle
Arrange the pieces of the puzzle to form a picture of the human brain.

14. Roles of the Cerebrum
The cerebrum is the thinking part of the brain. e.g. It allows us to solve puzzles.
It supervises intellectual activities.

15. 2 Hemispheres of the Cerebrum
Left Hemisphere is analytical. It helps in reading and forming words and language.

Right Hemisphere is focused on abstract things. It helps you recognize faces and colors.

17. Activity # 2 Left vs Right
Directions:
Say aloud the ink color of each word.

19. Four Lobes of Each Hemisphere

Now Diana is tired. So she relaxes and watches TV. She sees Coco Martin in a commercial. Her occipital lobe tells her Coco Martin is handsome.

25. Refresh your memory: Sticking Mr. Cerebrum
Locate the Frontal, Parietal, Occipital and Temporal Lobes.
Identify their roles.
