The Two Languages Club sponsored a “Building Better Brains” event the Friday before spring break! Students built with LEGO bricks, designed train tracks, solved puzzles, and played other brain-boosting games. As they worked, they discussed how being multilingual strengthens the brain. There are many long-term benefits to knowing multiple languages, including increased cognitive flexibility and a reduced risk of developing conditions such as Alzheimer’s disease. #PCSSDproud #bilingual
