Brain Waves (Grades 4 to 6)Brain Waves is a fun and educational program for students in Grades 4 to 6. Students learn about the structure and function of the nervous system through experiments and interactive lessons, and about the importance of protecting the brain and spinal cord from injury. By bringing this program into the classroom, teachers give their students a new awareness of the brain and spinal cord, and providing them with simple strategies to prevent injury. Brain Waves can also be presented to groups of youth outside of school classrooms, whether through Scouts, Girl Guides or community programs. |
