On Monday, 13th June Year 10 students began their exploration of their new topic: Developmental Psychology, by learning about 5 key areas of the brain.

Students worked together to produce 5 mini-knowledge dumps regarding the forebrain, midbrain, hindbrain, cerebellum and medulla. Some of them even used shower caps to create a life-size diagram of where these 5 regions are located.  Next, they will learn about how the brain forms neural connections that help the way we develop an understanding of the world. 

Parents, feel free to quiz the students on what they have learnt about these five areas of their brain!
