The Teenage Brain: A Work in Progress

Quick Write:
I think that some teenagers should have adult right's. mature teenagers, teenagers that earn that type of responsiblity. but then again, some adults don't deserve it either, i just think its best that everybody just earn it.


Enduring Understandings :

  • The human brain goes through distinct stages of development as it matures to adulthood. ( 5 )
  • The teenage brain is at a unique point in development. ( 5 )
  • Because of their brain development, teenagers sometimes struggle with decision-making. ( 2 )

Essential Questions:

What makes teenagers different from adults and babies?

Adults are more smarter, & know more than babies do. simply because adults been on the earth longer than babies. there are certain things a baby/toddler can prove wrong to adults, because the things adults may have learned when they were younger they probably forgot.

How is decision-making connected to the various parts of the brain?

The brain makes decision's by thinking of the bad or good, how will it  affect me if i do it or if i don't. 


How should society differentiate between teenagers and adults from a legal, social, and individual perspective?

 society shouldn't differentiate between teenagers and adults from a legal, social, and individual perspective because, teenagers are the next stage from being adult which we should be prepared. but then again, being an adult isn't exciting no more because we did everything as teenagers. 



How do we evaluate our own brain development at this point in our lives?


i evaluate my brain at this point, well developed and still learning i've grew up alot & make better decisions.
