Students will learn the structure and function of neurons and the role of electric signals in the brain/central nervous system. A visual board explaining synapse firing, neuron anatomy, and resulting brain function (muscle movement, visual processing, etc) will sit at our table. A plasma ball will sit in the middle of the poster, acting as an easy and stimulating demonstration of how electricity plays a key role in the brain. Students can touch the plasma ball and simulate electrical signaling.
