Enjoy the links!

Please ignore that last comment, it was a test. Besideds Memento, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, is another great film about memories.
Looking forward to reading your comments.

I meant besides. Sorry.

Hey, Mr. Carlisle!
I really liked the memory links. I thought the brain dissection was neat in the first website. Also, it was interesting to read about recognizing faces. I now know that if I ever decide to rob a bank, I should go with a wig instead of a beard!! The second website had a lot of neat tips on how to remember things, which could come in handy. Oh, and I'm in block 4A.

Bethany L.,
Glad you enjoyed the links. I think you would look great in a mullet wig.

Hey Mr. Carlisle!
Those links were pretty cool! The sheep dissection was a bit creepy but it's cool to learn a bit more about brains, I guess =) I liked the memory games!
See you on Wednesday!

Hi! I really enjoyed reading the " How to improve your memory tutorial". I've always thought I had a bad memory and there was nothing I could do about it but this 'tutorial' taught me how to relate certain things in my life to help me remember. See you wednesday period 4A!

I really enjoyed the websites. Great stuff. Thanks!

I liked these links a lot. I never knew that the brain has different areas to process specific types of memories. It's all pretty complicated.

Hey Carlizzle!!!
I thought the sheep brain being compared to the human brain was quite interesting. I wonder since pig organs are similar to those of humans, could pig brains be similar to humans, besides sheep? Hmmm...
See ya thurs.
3:55 PM
Hey Mr. Carlisle
Those links are rad. During one of the memory games, I thought it was weird because I remembered everything but drums... Which were my favorite thing on the list.
Haha. I got some pretty useful tips. They'll help for sure in Spanish 4 next year.
See you Thurday.
Sorry for being late.

Hi Mr. Carlisle,
I really liked the second link. I found it very interesting. How you remember things by association. And also how we don't have bad memories. I know a lot of people who talk about having bad memories, and that it's something they're born with, when actually they aren't practicing remembering things right and have nothing to connect it with.

Hello from the blogosphere. Thanks to Eric, Kelsey, Shawna, Cassie, and Beckie for making their contributions to the blog. Glad you all enjoyed the links. I really hope you can improve your memory.
6:35 PM
Those memory links are pretty cool. Memory IS a useful thing though...that guy in "Memento" said it wasn't...

Hey Mr. Carlisle!
I liked the memory links a lot. I thought the comparison of the sheep brain to the human brain was interesting. I especially liked the tips! I will use those tips in my other classes. I also liked reading about how people think that they have a bad memory but they really don't. They just need to practice memorizing things in a different way.

Courtney,
Leonard from Memento was angry about his situation. Not having a working short-term memory is quite a difficult thing to live with.
Janae,
Glad you liked the memory tips. They seem to be quite popular.
Adios.

Hi Carlisle,
this is kelsey darr from period 4a! i went to the links and they were good. I liked looking at the brains..... haha. Oh man though, ok so one of the pages was called whats wrong with this picture, and it showed a track team but they all had different hair but the same face. I totally didnt notice until later. it was cool! see ya tomorrow :)
7:44 PM
It just boggles my mind that in the outer layer of the brain holds 70% of our brain cells in just a few mm. Crazy! I thought it was very interesting.
7:53 PM
Hey great stuff Mr.carlisle.
Some of that memory stuff is very interesting.

Thanks for setting up these sites for us Carlisle. This class is going to be fun. See you Wednesday.

Hi Mr. Carlisle,
I liked the page on memorizing music. Usually after practicing the song a million times, I'd rather not remember them, but sure enough, later in the day I'll find myself humming it. Hey, can we do a unit on forgetting?

Hey Carlisle!
The links were pretty cool....I got the "which penny is the real one?" right! The thing about the faces was also pretty crazy. Never thought about the hair thing that much. Well see ya in class

Hey Mr. Carlisle,
The links were very interesting and I found that the memory quiz on the second link was very suprising.

Hey Carlisle...
I liked the first website with the brains. It was gross but interesting. :)
3:28 PM
Ms. Galloway,
Glad you liked the brains. Remember to make some new memory connections tonight!
3:51 PM
Awesome links! I loved the memory games they were really interesting and it was fun to see how I did. Class today was fun to. It was fun to see how people changed the story about the english professor.
6:32 PM
Mr. C- I enjoyed the links, especially the section on the second link concerning the use of peg words and "burning" things from your memory. I also thought the section on the artist's paintings from memory was very cool. See you tomorrow! - brittany 4b
8:39 PM
hi carlisle,
i thought the sheep brain was interesting, i have never seen the inside of a brain before. i have learned about the connections a brain makes, but i didn't know that someone can tell how many connections a brain has made by cutting it open and looking.
see you tomorrow

Nice websites i liked the brain dissections and i'm always looking for ways to rob a bank.

The pictures of the sheeps brain are gross, but it was very interesting how similar our brains are to sheep's. I did not know that. The games didn't work on the computer I am using, how dissapointing, I will have to try them another time.
12:53 PM
Cyncyrie,
I eat sheep brains for breakfast. They're yummy!
1:10 PM
Damn you omnivores! You always find new gross ways to creep me out. Veggies or bust! : ]
7:36 PM
Cyncyrie,
I was just kiding. I enjoy pig's feet much more! Have a great weekend.
7:23 AM
Hey Mr. Carlisle,
I really enjoyed the exploratorium page. The sheep/human brain was interesting and the little games that you have to draw from memory are great too!

Hey Mr. Carlisle! Most of the 2nd page (memory.com or whatever) was interesting, and totally made sense about how to improve your memory. It's just odd that your brain is limitless...and i played the penny game, i still chose wrong depsite our game with the penny in class! Eh, whatever. ok see you soon! -Treva4B
9:46 PM
Treva,
Start memorizing all of your money right now!
8:37 AM
Those links were awesome. The brain comparison with the sheep was a bit icky, but always a good read. Sometimes what you fear most turns out to be the most worthwhile. haha
6:34 PM
Tiffany D,
Great post about the links. I really like the images of the brains too. Brains resemble cauliflower to me...
8:06 PM
HEY CARLISLE!!!!
The sheep brains were disgusting! But that's crazy how they are similar! I liked the websites and learning new tricks on how to help my memory!! See you in class! Katie B. 4b
