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. |

"When we discussed the idea of her visiting my Anatomy & Physiology course, she was responsive to our learning needs. She sent me her 90-minute opioid lesson and asked which parts were best suited for my students. The professional and personalized approach she took towards styling our learning based on our learning community needs, experience, prior knowledge, and curiosities was amazing."

Prevention Educator
Opioids and Brain Development "I can't recommend Sydoney and her program strongly enough! Her lessons were engaging, informative, fun, and interactive. She brings a ton of info and is an expert in her field. The kids enjoyed her time in my classroom - and learned a lot too!"
