SUMMARY:Noggins @ Sunnyside LIVE!
DESCRIPTION:WHAT: NW Noggin @ Sunnyside Environmental School \nWe did it!\nHow to visit public schools\n \n \nWHERE: Sunnyside Environmental School\, 3421 SE Salmon St\, Portland\, OR 97214 \nWHEN: Thursday\, October 28\, 9:45am – noon (arrival and set up @ 9:45am; first class 10 – 10:50am; second class 11 – 11:50am) \nHow to visit Portland Public Schools:\nEveryone outdoors\, fully vaccinated and properly masked. \nContacts: Asa Gervich and Jeremy Thomas\, 4th grade teachers \n \nWe are thrilled to return LIVE to Jeremy and Asa’s lively classrooms this fall! We’ll make two visits\, on Tuesday (10/26) and Thursday (10/28) to consider faces and the brain. We’ll examine faces\, make faces\, draw faces\, consider faces in art and explore how we share our own unique brains through expression. \n \nBut we’ll also make brain cells and consider AMAZING questions from 4th graders!\n \nFrom 4th Grade Teacher Asa Gervich: \nOver the past weeks\, students have learned about the interplay between their prefrontal cortex\, hippocampus\, and amygdala – and how mindfulness practices can help us self-regulate. Last week\, we learned about the Reticular Activating System – and how it can help us sift through myriad sensory inputs to focus on something important – like\, how does an NBA player tune out all the zany free-throw distractions happening in the stands? Or\, what role did the RAS play in about half of our class not spotting the gorilla in this video? What’s going on with our RAS when we listen to music and can isolate one particular instrument? Can everyone do that? We were thinking that visit #2 would be an awesome time to bring out the brain specimens (give them something to look forward to after visit #1). And\, Jeremy put in a vote for that super cool electrical-impulse station if you guys are still doing that… \n \nSome current kid wonderings: \nIf parts of the brain are damaged or lose function\, how does that impact how the body works?\nIs the brain actually pink? Why?\nWhich is more important\, the brain or the heart?\nHow was Albert Einstein’s brain different from other people’s?\nIf two people were born at the exact time\, and they liked the exact same stuff\, and thought the same things at the same time – how would their brains be different? Would their brains be different?\nHow many neural pathways are there in your brain?\nCan neural pathways be rebuilt or repaired? \nIs your brain like your immune system? \nYou know how your fingerprints are unique to you – I wonder if your brain is the same way – is everyone’s completely unique\nWhen someone experiences a failure of either brain or heart (or both) and they survive it – how does that happen?\nPerhaps the number of pathways is infinite – because you can always learn new things…\nIf you have learned how to do a thing through mistake-making\, and then you had some brain damage\, would you be starting from step one to be learning that thing? Would you need to make all those mistakes all over again?\nWhat’s going on with people who have amnesia? Do people ever get amnesia so bad that they don’t know who they are anymore? \n \nLook forward to seeing you all soon! \nTo join us\, please contact griesar@pdx.edu and jleake@pdx.edu. \nCOMMITTED VOLUNTEERS \n\nBill Griesar\, PSU/OHSU/NW Noggin\nBecky Martinez\, NIH BUILD EXITO/PSU\nRose Jardin\, PSU/Neuro Club President\nTheresa Vu\, PSU\nAurora Hernandez Martinez\, PSU\nElana Kananykhina\, PSU\nCris Keirsey\, PSU\nBen Bolen\, PSU Neuroscience Club\nKrystal Khanh Nguyen\, PSU\nJames Reynolds\, PSU\n\n\n\n \nSEE WHAT WE DID AT SUNNYSIDE BEFORE AND DURING COVID 🦠 \nThank You Northwest Noggin!\n \nNeurons in Minecraft & More!\n \nA crayon in Homer’s brain\n \nWhat about the glia?
