Our Nervous system!! Let´s create the mind map!

Dear students!!

Let´s complete the following info in your notebooks!!

The nervous system is made of the brain, the spinal cord, and a large network of nerves. Sensory nerves carry messages to the brain and motor nerves carry messages to the muscles.

The brain is the coordinating centre of the nervous system. It controls all of the body´s activity.

The cerebrum is the largest and most complex part of the brain. It controls our intelligence, memory, personality, emotion, speech and the ability to feel and move.

The cerebellum is responsible for balance, movement, and coordination.

The brainstem connects the brain to the spinal cord. It also controls some involuntary actions like breathing and our heartbeat.

Let´s create a mindmap:

• What´s the Nervous system made of?
• What´s the brain?
• What are the three parts of the brain?
• can you mention the function of each part of the brain?
• What is a nerve cell?
• What´s a synapse?
