Learning about Learning





Since Week 1 of Term 1, we have been learning about our brain - how it functions, the uses of it and how it learns. Every living thing has intelligence. Most people would think that intelligence is how smart you are. Well that's not exactly right; intelligence can be for music, art, sports, problem solving and other stuff other than school work
Everybody is born with intelligence because if you didn't have intelligence would you be alive? No you wouldn't.
Have you ever wondered, if your brain was cut in half, would you survive? We watched a video clip and discovered that you can survive and most likely will have multi-talents such as if you were a right-hander you could write with your left hand.  We also learnt that if part of your brain becomes damaged then the other areas of the brain can help to carry on the task that the damaged part used to. The brain is able to adapt and improve its functions.
You have two sides of your brain ( right and left ) the right and left sides are completely opposite to each other with their different attributes



The right is artistic, creative, imaginative
The left side is logical, mathematical, linguistic ( language ) 
basically the left is for school work and problem solving and the right is for art and music and creativity.
 
So to sum it all up our brain is phenomenal and the most important organ in our precious bodies without our brain we would be a lifeless body.
