BEGINNING THE LESSON

The lesson greeting

The teacher sets the lesson objectives, letting students know what to anticipate from the lesson.

Lead in. Engage students with the topic by asking: What are some words that are related to the brain? List students’ responses on the board. After creating a list, ask students to group the words into categories, such as Parts of the Brain or Brain Powers. Create a concept map by writing Brain on the board and circling it. Write the categories around the circle and draw lines between the ideas to show connections. Then write the words from the list around the appropriate categories.
