Class 2

To be ready for this class:

  1. Add 6 words from the video "How sugar affects the brain" to your Vocabulary Table. Fill out all the columns. We can remove the words that are already there.
  2. Write 200 words about how sugar affects our brains. Do this at the end of the Reading & Listening Project document that we created and you shared with me in Class 1.
    • Watch "How sugar affects the brain" one more time and take notes. Then do the writing. Don’t copy the captions (sub-titles) by constantly stopping the video and copying. Just watch and write; we're not looking to see how well you copy or memorise. And use paragraphs: they help our readers. We'll use this in class to play a bit with ChatGPT.
  3. Become familiar with the content in the links below of what we'll do—especially the article "How sugar and fat trick the brain into wanting more food" (read it) and videos in the note-taking page (watch them).

What we'll do:

Note-taking (45–60 minutes)
Vocabulary Tables (10 minutes)
Writing with ChatGPT
