How to remember them?

`bb"F""rontal" color(white)(l)bb"T""emporal" color(white)(l)bb"P""arietal"color(white)(l) bb"O""ccipital"`

Try `bbcolor(red)("F")"reud"color(white)(l) bbcolor(red)("T")"ore his" color(white)(l)bbcolor(red)("P")"ants" color(white)(l)bbcolor(red)("O")"ff"`

Functions of the lobes

`bbcolor(red)("F")"rontal lobe"`

Think of yourself as making a presentation in front of all the class.

You will have to do some planning and complex thinking, and your peers will judge your performance.

These are functions of the frontal lobe.

`bbcolor(red)("T")"emporal lobe"`

Use tempo as your aid to memory.

Picture yourself enjoying the tempo of your favourite music, perhaps with a metronome keeping the beat.

The temporal lobe is the auditory processing area of the brain.

`bbcolor(red)("P")"arietal"`

One function of the parietal lobe is to processes sensory input involving taste, temperature, and touch.

Replace "parie" with "piranha".

Imagine that a piranha bites you on the top of the head, where the parietal lobe is located.

That’s a sensation the parietal lobe would process.

`bbcolor(red)("O")"ccipital lobe"`

The occipital lobe processes visual information.

Use the "occ" part of the word to think of an `bb"OC"`topus with a million eyeballs instead of suckers on its tentacles.
