Learners record observations and create drawings and models of anatomy using their five senses. They describe the structures of a neuron and analyze each of their functions. They compare and contrast the typical structural features of a...

Students identify structures of the brain, and neurons and analyze their functions.  In this nervous system instructional activity students create drawings and models of anatomy.

Students create a scale model of a motor neuron that is two hundred times larger than the actual neuron. They identify the structures of a neuron and observe neurons under the microscope then use a worksheet to convert actual sizes into...

Students investigate the mechanics of an fMRI and the properties of neurons. In this biology lesson plan, students analyze the way the brain works by performing tests in the neurons in the brain. This is all done theoretically.

Students investigate the changes in escape behavior in Madagascar Hissing Cockroahes when their sensory apparatus is removed. They use puffs of air at differnt angles to simulate a predator's approach then collect and analyze data on...

Students name objects that are the same size, shape, and weight as the human brain. They touch the model brain, feeling the folds, etc. They make connections to the chart displaying the brain-like objects. They touch the 'potato flake'...
