It’s All in the Brain

It’s All in the Brain: Did you hear that noise? What’s that awful smell?  Without us, even knowing, our sense organs (eyes, ears, nose, tongue and skin) are taking information and sending it to the brain for processing. If we did not have that, we would not be able to smell, hear, touch, or taste anything.  Our young scientists are investigating the sense organs and how the information travels from sensor to the brain.  Students will further explore the amazing inner workings of the eye.  So if you ever wonder how your camera is like a human eye, just ask one of our experts, the fifth grade students.
