Brain Dip Resources featuring Neurotransmitters
Our neural network is an incredible universe where we can remember, create, imagine and even time travel!
But! If you're starting your lessons with retrieval practice, which usually takes the form of a formative test, you will be left with some students feeling disengaged and unmotivated because they couldn't do the test.
Retrieval practice for some students ends up releasing stress hormones rather than supporting their neurons.
There are other ways to prime our beautiful brains and that is through understanding neurotransmitters. Our neurons are constantly releasing neurotransmitters which play a key role in consolidating our memories.
That's why Brain Dip resources focus on neurotransmitters and how best to utilise them through activity.
A single creative thought can increase the efficiency of our neurotransmitters.
All your students can start the lesson feeling motivated, focused, connected and even feeling good about themselves with just their creative thinking.
Our stylish resources are compatible with:
-
Microsoft PowerPoint for the classroom
-
Google Jamboard for blended learning
-
Any printer, so your students can take it home
