Help me give my students a deeper understanding of the human brain. The Human Regional Brain models will help my biology students and AP Psych students visualize the human brain during multiple units.
FULLY FUNDED! Mr. Cantor's classroom raised $1,263

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month
This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because
it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.
My Project
In 9th grade biology, our first unit is learning about the brain reward pathway and how it relates to cell phone, social media and app addiction and their effects on mental health. In AP Psychology students go deep into neuroanatomy as we study all aspects of human behavior and mental processes. The human brain models will help students visualize in three dimensions how the brain systems work.
Having four models, each with two complete hemispheres will allow every student to have a hands-on experience as they are learning about the complexities of the human brain.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
