More and more comments have been added and it's been great to receive some from a few parents too! I'm glad everyone is enjoying a little bit more of a connection with school. I promise to try and write answers for all of the questions that have been asked...stay tuned.
I've been doing some reading this weekend and found out a few facts about the human brain along with some comparisons with other creatures. I'll probably share some thoughts from this over the next few weeks.
Did you know that the human brain has around one million million brain cells. Look at the number in digits: 1 000 000 000 000. WOW, that's a big number!! Don't worry this wont be in the exams!
In comparison a bee has less than 1 million. Bees can: fly, protect, fight, see, hear, smell, taste, touch, build, control temperature, count, navigate, walk, run, remember, play, nurture, reproduce and work constructively and co-operatively in a community.
That's pretty amazing that they can do all those things with less than a million brain cells. IMAGINE what we could do if we trained our brains well!!!!
