10 minutes Class Activity

The discussants creatively made an activity based on their online researches specially from the article
contributed by Dr. Gail Gross (Ph.D., Ed.D., M.Ed), who is a Human Behavior, Parenting, and Education Expert,
Speaker and Author entitled How Boys and Girls Learn Differently. Before the discussion, the reporters will divide
the class into two groups; the group of girls and the group of boys. There are printed phrases which are related to
the topic that will be randomly place on the left side of the board while on the right side will be the drawn column
of two in which the phrases will be selected according to choices of the group. 5 minutes will be given to each
group.

 pick up less social cues

 mature more slowly
 have more of their cerebral cortex defined for spatial relationships
 they learn easily through movement and visual experience
 see their problems in more focused ways and will assign their failure to a particular area of study rather
than over-generalize and see themselves as lacking
 don't want to make eye contact and they fidget in their seats
 Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics (STEM) programs
 action-oriented, often competitive and impulsive risk-takers
 more sporty
 manipulation skills
 have more of their cerebral cortex defined for verbal function.
 have more serotonin and oxytocin
 they are calmer and more interested in emotional connection
 have more of their cerebral cortex defined for verbal function
 The hippocampus, where memory and language live, does develop more rapidly and is larger in ____.
