Today in class, we went over the 5? Stats Quiz that students completed on Monday.

Next, students worked on the "Candy Neuron" Assignment. Individually, students worked to use 1 marshmallow, 1 pull and peel twizzler, a handful of M&Ms, and 4 gummy worms to build a single neuron. Next, students worked to with 8 other students to appropriately connect each person's neuron to the group (neural network). Students completed the handout explaining each part of the neuron. The class debriefed the activity.

Then, the class took out the Neuroscience Diagram Packet that was given out on Tuesday. Together, we labeled the parts of a single neuron and discussed each part's function.

Homework:

1. Research Methods Retake Test - must be completed by the end of the day on Tuesday

2. bring headphones to class tomorrow.

- no journal assignment for Friday - but you can work ahead if you want because you do have a journal assigned on Friday for the weekend :)
