Hello, Class! This is Towako from MEL School.
How are you doing?
This week's ELST Listening was a little challenging! Some of the conversations had tricky points, so you needed to listen carefully to understand what was really happening.
In Q Skills, we continued thinking about multitasking and learning, and then moved on to how our brains work. We also explored word roots and discovered connections between words such as memory, remember, and memorize.
See you next time!

Listening A2.2 #17
You first worked on the listening questions individually.
This time, there were several tricky questions where it was easy to choose the wrong answer if you caught only part of the conversation.
We checked the conversations together and studied some important grammar and vocabulary. Then, you practiced the conversations through pair role-play.
When listening, don't rely on just one word you recognize. Try to understand the whole situation and what the speakers really mean.
For homework, practice Shadowing A2.2 #17 and add any new words to My 練習帳.
Q Skills for Success Reading and Writing Level 1
Unit 2: What is the best way to study?
Write What You Think
We reviewed Reading 2: One Thing at a Time by listening and reading again.
Then, you discussed:
Can you think of an example of when you made a mistake because you were multitasking?
Do you plan to turn off your phone when you study? Why or why not?
The important step is to connect the ideas you read about with your own experiences and study habits.
Video: Neurons as Networks
We looked at the picture and predicted what the video might be about before watching it.
Then, you watched the video to identify its main idea and completed sentences using information from the video.
The video helped us think more about what happens in our brains when we learn.
Vocabulary Skill: Word Roots
We also looked at connections between words:
memory → remember → memorize → memorial
and studied words such as:
cognitive, connect, interrupt, multitask, technology
Looking at word roots and word families can help you understand unfamiliar vocabulary without simply memorizing every word separately.
