Part 2
On the picture below, label the 4 major regions of the brain: Brain Stem, cerebellum, diencephalon, and cerebrum. Describe what function each region of the brain performs. (Either print a copy of this image or sketch one of your own (you will not be graded on your artistic abilities))

Part 3
Identify the 4 lobes of the cerebrum and list what functions each lobe is responsible for by writing the name of the lobe (Frontal, Parietal, Occipital, Temporal) next to the corresponding letter on the same piece of paper(s) as your definitions from part 1.
