-Materials: eggs (at least 2), markers to draw on a face (waterproof), 2 plastic containers with tops, and water (to fill the container).


Session 2: Brain Structure/Function
-Brain Diagram Project
-Materials: markers, paint or colored pencils, small white poster board, pen/pencils.


Session 3: Brain Structure/Function ctd, What is a neuron?
-Build a Neuron Project
-Materials: clay or play-dough, recyclables (any combination of bottle caps, styrofoam material, cups, buttons, coins), any food, circular and/or string shaped candy, scissors


Session 4: Sleep, Dreams, and the Brain
-Socktopus Project
-Materials for sock pet:

Orientación para padres
-Safety is our top priority. I advise parents/guardians/adults to provide supervision during sessions 3 and 4 for our use of scissors. -During session 3, we have the option of using play-doh. Play-doh may contain wheat, which could cause an allergic reaction if ingested in those sensitive to wheat gluten or with Celiac disease.
