What Will Neuroscience Literacy Sessions Look Like?

Time: 30 - 45 minutes

Where: Classroom or gym (preferably anywhere that has a smartboard)

Target Audience: All elementary and junior high students.

What: I will be presenting a slideshow about the brain. There will be fun videos and interactive images. I will give students fun brain colouring sheets/fun brain facts sheets/goody bags to keep at the end of the presentation. I will also do fun brain games with the students to test their knowledge and there may be prizes. E.g. Kahoot, and calling students up for demonstrations!
