Chapter 2 Brain Model Assignment!

You will be building a 3D model brain using the material of your choice.
Your model will be due on your test day
-Your brain can be made out of anything you want (clay, ceramic, foam) EXCEPT FOR FOOD. You may NOT use food or anything that is perishable to build your brain.
-You may work with a partner. You may work with someone who has AP psych another period.
-You may create a standing 3D model or a hanging 3D model.
-Your goal is to develop a model that identifies specific structures of the human brain. The structures that you must identify are listed below.
-You may either number the parts of your model and make a key, or you may label them directly on the model.
-Your model should be approximately life-sized and split in half so that we can see the inner sides of both hemispheres.
-Check some of my chapter 2 links online for reference (www.ikeeepbookmarks.com/lara_herrera), use your textbook, and use the other books I have in class.
Also, if you have an iPhone, you can download the 3D Brain app free. It's from the DANA Foundation.

This should be fun!!!
