Brain Advertisement

Your brain is now for sale. Create an advertisement for your brain. The ad could be a short paragraph for the Sunday classified section or a full-page ad with bright pictures and words. Describe what the buyer will get when he buys your brain. perhaps add some comments from the previous owner. What makes your brain better than others? How much education has your brain had? perhaps give a bit of your brain's history like:

NEVER ON DRUGS! LOW MILEAGE (it's young)! READY TO LEARN

BRAINY NEWSPAPER

Create and publish your own newspaper, complete with name, headlines, and stories about a day in the life of your brain. For example, you could call your newspaper "The Daily Dendrite" or "The Brain Bulletin". Stories might include:

"Visual Cortex Sees All"--describe how the visual cortex was activated on a trip to the museum.

"Cerebellum Goes into Overtime"--describe how the cerebellum was used during a basketball game.
