Brain DevelopmentGrades 8-12
The Brain Architecture Game How circumstances, drugs, and decisions affect the how well the brain functions. Columbia Health Services offers two different versions: The Original Brain Architecture Game works with the first 8 years of life, illustrating to students how circumstances, trauma, and privilege in the early years can affect us throughout our lives. The Drug & Brain Architecture Game works with grades 5 through 12 and illustrates, like the original game, how circumstances, trauma, and privilege affect our abilities, and also looks at the choices we make and how they can continue to affect our brains and our lives. |
