Whole lesson on Penfield’s study of the interpretive cortex. From the AQA GCSE Psychology new spec (9-1).

Does involve use of the AQA Psychology textbook from p158-159, as I intended for the whole class to read this together (a sentence each). Also includes a comic strip to display the study too.

Also includes exam questions on localisation of brain function with answers.
