ATLANTA BRAIN ASSEMBLY
2nd Grade participated in the annual Atlanta Brain Awareness Campaign on Thursday! The Atlanta Chapter of the Society for Neuroscience (ACSfN) sponsors free school visits from Atlanta neuroscientists. This is a outreach program in which a volunteer comes to teach students all about the wonders of the brain. This year our neuroscientist volunteer taught 2nd grade all about different characteristics of animal brains AND also how the eyes effect the brain's reaction. The students were involved in many different hands on experiments and open discussions. Finally, at the end of the presentation, our students got to put on a glove and touch a REAL brain! What a great learning experience!
