Phase 3 "Cake Model Learning Strategy" (Kelly)

This is a worksheet to go along with the cake of the brain.  Also, little flags were made so that it would be easy to label each lobe of the brain on the cake.

Functions of the Brain

Frontal Lobe: personality, ability to judge, plan, speaking, muscle movements, reasoning, emotions, problem solving

*Damage to this area will cause someone to not be able to concentrate, they will have lack of inhibition, and behavior disorders are possible

Temporal Lobe: auditory areas, memory, expressed behavior

*Damage to this area will cause hearing deficits and childish behavior

Parietal Lobe: processes body sensations, body orientation

*Damage to this area will cause the inability to write and recognize self

Occipital Lobe: visual areas

*Damage to this area will cause loss of vision in the opposite field

Scenarios:

·        If someone loss their hearing what lobe would be damaged?

·        Someone was in a car crash and now they are having behavioral disorders. What part of the brain was damaged?

·        What part of the brain would be damaged if someone was blind?

·        Someone got hit in the head when playing baseball and now they are having difficulty writing in school. What part of the brain was damaged?

·        What part of the brain would be damaged if someone was not able to recognize their self?

 Here is a picture of the brain cake that would be used.
