Clay Brain

In this activity, we made a brain out of clay, who could have guessed with title. Essentially what we did to create the brains was look up the images of the brain along the left hemisphere along sagittal plane and the right cerebral hemisphere. We made sure to get the basic and most familiar lobes and other structures down on the cardboard first, then built our way to the more complex structures. Eventually we got to the point where we needed to label the structures, so me, being the lazy guy that I am, cut out the grading sheet and pasted it onto the cardboard. We then pulled pieces of the play-dough from each structure and placed it on the appropriate label. Although this was supposed to save us time, we still ended up finishing the project last.
