Circle: One thing you love about Thanksgiving?
Sensation and Perception Assignment Sheet
Target: Sensation and Perception: Point to remember-We feel, see hear, taste, and smell with our BRAIN, which can sense even without functioning senses. Sensation refers to how we detect physical energy from the environment and encode it as neural signals. Perception refers to how we select, organize and interpret this information. Sensation provides the raw information that perception constructs into our experiences.
Reminder about how to make notecards
3. In your own words. Personal connection.
Activity: As a class, you will be watching series of brief videos relating to Sensation and Perception. Your job will be as a small group to connect what you have watched to what we are studying. You will have one person who is leading the discussion, i.e. restating the question and keep the group focused, another will be the reporter who will explain to the class what specifically this connects to and how it connects once everyone in your group understands. You will be taking notes that you can add to your unit 4 notes. Please bring your book to class
