Featured Activity Kit: Cross Section Brain Model

While every part of the human body has a necessary function, the brain is perhaps the most important one. Our brain is command central for our body and being. It controls movement, automatic bodily functions, thoughts, emotions, and so much more. Understanding the brain is key to understanding ourselves and how we operate.

The Cross-Section Brain Model is an ideal way to introduce your students to the many parts and functions of the  brain. Made of durable soft foam, the model can be passed around the classroom both whole, for an external view, or split to explore its inner workings.

Along with the model, the kit includes a teacher’s guide leaflet, in which you can find the brain map and explanation of the different parts. The guide also provides suggested activities and interesting brain fact to share with students.

The Cross-Section Brain Model is now on display at OISE Library on the Ground Floor coffee table, adjacent to the Circulation Desk. You can also view this item as well as other hands-on learning resources in the OISE Library K-12 Manipulatives Database.
