Lesson 2 Nervous System: The Brain
Lesson 2 Nervous System: The Brain
Facilitator: Judith Carope
Subject Matter: General Science
Major Topic: Nervous System
Minor Topic: The Brain
I. Lesson Objectives:
1.
2. Given a picture of the brain, each student will be able to identify the three regions and each part.
3. The student will be able to submit eighty percent of the brain parts and each function in table forms by independent learning.
4. The student will be able to enumerate 10 common facts of brain by using the descriptive pattern organizer.
II. Key Concepts:
The brain regulates many body processes by controlling the functioning of organs and systems. It communicates with the rest of the body through the spinal cord and a wiring system formed by the nerves.
The brain has parts, divided into three main regions, each with different functions. These regions are the forebrain, the cerebellum, and brain stem.
The forebrain has four parts: the cerebrum – responsible for conscious thoughts and actions, the thalamus – is an information relay station, the hypothalamus - controls many automatic body process such s body temperature and hunger, and the limbic system – controls our feelings and emotions. The cerebellum controls the body’s balance and coordination, while the brain stem forms a link between brain and spinal cord. It monitors and regulates the body’s vital functions. These include how fast the heart beats, how quickly we breathe, and how high our blood pressure is.
III. Learning Activities
Activity 1
“Explain brain structure”
Look for the brain picture and analyzed the formation or organization of the brain. Write a short paragraph based on composition that you’ve discovered.
Activity 2
“Identify”
Below are the scrambled parts of brain. Try to group these words according to their family.
Look for a picture of the brain and label it using the parts written below.
Limbic system

Requirement 4
“Make a Descriptive organizer of brain”
Facts about brain
Note: In making the requirement, kindly refer to your activities.
Good day ma'am! this is sweet.
This is what I've researched for activity #1.
Our brain is very essential to every living creature-most especially to us,human beings. Usually,the day we we're born until 9 years old in our life,we are unconscious to this brain-thing theory. (of course,unless your parents will talk about it with you as early as possible) But the good thing on this matter is that, even though you don't know anything about your brain,still it's functioning and works pretty cool for you, right?
Brain,-as I how was I oriented with this is that,it is not really hard to understand. Brain is responsible on my different perception such as self-control, planning, reasoning, and abstract thought.but,yet, it is complex in nature. Each parts has a special task to do and very sensitive in responding things. Amazing, isn't it?

ACTIVITY 1 REQUIREMENT
The photos below are photos of the brain.
These are the photos I have downloaded referring to the human brain.
The human brain is composed of brain cells called neurons.
The brain is the center of the nervous system. It is the one that makes thinking possible. Without this, one cannot think nor respond towards the senses. As what we could see in the structure of the neuron, the brain is composed of tiny neurons which is the one responsible for receiving nerve impulses. By that, messages go to the spinal cord and is sent to the brain. The brain is responsible for interpretng those messages. The different parts of the brain have different functions. Each activity is being interpreted by the responsible parts of the brain. The brain then sents the interpreted message to the responsible sense organ.
Through the brain structure, it tells us that the brain interprets in an organized way.
Ma'am, is my answer correct?
How will you grade me in my paragraph writing?
ACTIVITY 2 REQUIREMENT
Here is the labelled part of the brain with he following parts
Cerebellum
Thalamus
Brain stem
Hypothalamus
Forebrain
Cerebrum
The green portion is the cerebrum.
Limbic system
ACTIVITY 3 REQUIREMENT
The brain has six basic parts such as the cerebrum, cerebellum, brain stem, thalamus, hypothalamus, and limbic system.
Below are the functions of each part.

Hi liel! you're answers we're amazing! I think you just got an excellent source! But I've notice that some of your picture,one or two,maybe,aren't so clear. It will help us also to study if we share ideas,correct? So,to all students who are uner in this online class,please have a clarity on your activity-answers.Thank you liel for inspiring us to be diligent in our attending on our web-class.
Thank you for the compliment sweet.
I just downloaded those since I cannot see a photo with the complete six parts of the brain (as it was stated that we need to find one). Well, better to see an unclear one, but with complete parts, than to pass a very clear one but somewhat lacking. Anyways, I think I don't need to download a clearer one since I can't find any.
However, if you could not still understand such part, you can search it for yourself and share it with the group.
By the way, are you done with our Lesson 1 Cardiovascular System: The Heart? I just hope so since it was posted ahead than this lesson.
Hello class,
Have A nice Day!
I’m so sorry for not responding you for how many days because I’m in our school. We were having our 1 week program. The computer laboratory was not open.
Thank you!
A message For sweet (activity 1)
Thank you sweet,
Yes you got points; however, can you explain more about the structure of our brain? How the brain parts organize?
A message for liel gem villaver ( activity 1)
Thank you for being a diligent student.
Congratulations!
You’ve got the ideas, you have explained well. You have a higher knowledge of our topic. Anyway, all of your answers are correct. This is your own ideas based on the picture that you have seen.
Keep on… God bless

You’re so smart liel. You’ve gave some brain parts. It is good. Try to read again the key concepts in the lesson plan that I have posted. You can research more. What are the 3 major parts of the brain and each sub parts?
Just visit these websites.
A message for Liel Gem Villaver (activity 3)
Congratulations!
You’ve got the exact answer.
Search more about the functions of each part.
God bless!!!
Thank you for answering class. Please encourage also your classmates to do our activities. Thank you.
God bless!!!

The different parts of the brain have its different
function. It is very important that we human have to do our part as the
operator because our system depends on how we handle it with care. Our brain is not only in physical concern but
also in the emotional, academic aspect. It is also important to know that every
part of the brain is very useful; it connects to each other that make the
function easier. That is why we should continually thank God for this thing,
because it helps us to solve problems, think critically, and do our work in the
right way….
3. a. thalamus
b. cerebellum
c. cerebrum
d. Limbic system
e.Brain stem
f. brain stem
g. hypothalamus
h.fore brain
a.
Brain, portion of the central
nervous system contained within the skull. The brain is the control center for
movement, sleep, hunger, thirst, and virtually every other vital activity
necessary to survival.
b.
The adult human brain
is a 1.3-kg (3-lb) mass of pinkish-gray jellylike tissue made up of
approximately 100 billion nerve cells, or neurons; neuroglia
(supporting-tissue) cells; and vascular (blood-carrying) and other tissues.
ma'am the semester is almost over, thank you so much for the additional information you had given me..
have a wonderful semestral break ma'am
