Memory Games science show
Making learning fun with brain boosts
Versions for Ages 7-14 | KS2, KS3
Students discover how the brain changes when we learn new things through a series of memory games and quizzes.
In this interactive science show we introduce how memories are stored in the brain, and share tips and tricks for making the most of your memory to boost learning.
Memory Games is perfect for KS2/KS3, whereas for KS4/KS5 we explore the neuroscience of learning in more detail in our Mastering Memory science show.
