Mentoring Monday and Tutoring Tuesday went great last week. Students came back from Thanksgiving break excited and with a little extra energy.
On Wednesday we learned more about the brain, we went over a lot of definitions and the students did a wonderful job of asking questions and trying to understand what each part of the brain actually does.
On Thursday and Friday students worked on their brain projects. Each mentor and mentee pair was assigned a different vocab word and they had to create a super hero based off of it. Their super heroes super powers were based off of what that function of the brain excelled at. For example, the hippocampus' main function is memory so a super power could be the ability to remember everything that's ever happened. Here's a couple student examples:
It was a great week learning about the brain. Tune in next week! Thanks!
