Brain Facts
The
brain
weighs
~
3
lbs.
but
uses
20%
of
the
bodys
energies.
Most
of
a
babys
100
Billion
Brain
cells
are
not
connected
in
a
network.
They
become
connected
when
they
have
sPmulaPng
experiences.
By
age
3,
the
number
of
connecPons
peak.
A
3year
old
has
twice
the
number
of
connecPons
as
an
adult.
This
huge
number
of
connecPons
means
that
a
3
year
olds
brain
is
more
acPve,
connected
and
exible
than
that
of
an
adult!
A
childs
capacity
for
learning
any
language
is
greatly
diminished
by
age
11.
And
yet
we
teach
languages
in
high
school
and
not
elementary
school.
The
many
parts
of
the
brain
work
in
concert
to
ready
the
body
for
acPon
or
to
be
ready
to
process
informaPon.
The
various
parts
of
the
brain
have
specic
funcPons
to
perform.
For
opPmal
use
of
our
brains,
use
varying
learning
modaliPes.
The
brain
strengthens
frequently
used
connecPons
and
gets
rid
of
liWle-used
connecPons.
Therefore
repeaPng
posiPve
experiences
is
benecial
to
any
age.
Cor)sol
stress
hormone,
inhibits
informaPon
processing
A
Teacher
reprimanding
a
students
will
inhibit
that
childs
learning
for
upwards
of
45
minutes
unPl
the
corPsol
chemical
is
ltered
out.
Stress
factors
prolonged
stress
in
young
children
stunts
their
academic
ability
.
Worry,
fearfulness,
depression
shuts
down
the
brain.
The
chemicals
in
the
brain
ready
the
body
for
self-
preservaPon
in
a
ight
or

mode.
RaPonale
thinking
is
not
processed.

Sense of hearing.
Sense of smell.
Sense of taste.
Sense of touch.
Another
Brain-based
learning
technique
is
the
use
of
Realia
using
real
life
objects
in
teaching,
whenever
possible.
A
picture
can
speak
a
thousand
words,
but
a
real
life
object
can
be
beyond
words.
(Lets
take
Pme
now
to
nourish
your
brain
and
to
give
you
a
real
life
experience
in
taste,
texture
and
eye
appealing
colors.)
As
you
enjoy
the
awesome
strawberry
refreshment,
think
about
how
you
might
describe
the
strawberry
to
someone
who
has
never
seen
nor
tasted
one.
Anybody
want
to
try?
What
does
it
look
like?
What
does
it
taste
like?
What
does
it
feel
like?
What
are
the
colors?
