On Thursday, last week, Laura Anderson, a
neuropsychologist came and spoke to all the grade 3/4's about emotional
health. Laura brought a 3D model of the brain with her and many of our
questions were about the physiology of the human brain.
Laura clearly explained to us why she wanted to
become a psychologist and the many different ways she helps people through her
work.
Even after she left we still had many questions
for Laura, which she said we could email to her :)
