What are some ways that our class could learn from the way neurons get

we could likely do to make our neurons stronger would be to perform brain
exercises like crossword puzzles, word searches, sudoku puzzles, riddles,
etc. daily. Because we're teenagers, the pathways we use the most now
will grow to be the strongest in the future so it is critical for us to use the
pathways we want to strengthen now even more than at other ages.
