Gray Hawk Neuro-News

I have included a couple of great little videos for parents and students about growing neural pathways and one of OUR true superpowers - neuroplasticity! Check these out.


Video 1: The Neuroscience of Learning : Whether you're perfecting your free throw or picking up a new language, you need to form new pathways in your brain in order to learn anything.
