Prefrontal Cortex Intro

The prefrontal cortex is the brain’s thinking center — the part that helps us plan, focus, make decisions, and respond instead of react. When the PFC is online, students can problem‑solve, stay organized, and communicate clearly. But when stress rises, the PFC goes quiet, making it harder to think things through.

🎨 About the PFC Poster

This poster shows students how their “thinking brain” works and why it sometimes goes offline. It highlights focus, decision‑making, and calm problem‑solving, giving students a visual reminder that thinking clearly is a skill — and one they can strengthen every day.
