Can your students guess the answer to this riddle?

Did you know that some nouns only exist in plural form?

👖 They include the names of tools, instruments, and articles of clothing which normally have two parts, e.g. trousers.
👖 They are uncountable so cannot be used with numbers, e.g. two trousers.
👖 But we often make them countable using the word ‘pair’, e.g. a pair of trousers.
👖 They are always used with a plural verb, e.g. These are my trousers.

Have you heard of 'popcorn brain'? 🍿🧠

Our Cambridge Dictionary defines 'popcorn brain' as a psychological condition where someone cannot keep their mind and attention fixed on anything, thought to be caused by spending too much time on social media.

With the rise of social media use, psychologists warn against scrolling on your phone and ending up with 'popcorn brain', which could increase stress and anxiety levels.

This #MentalHealthAwarenessWeek, remember to take a break from digital distractions, pause and refocus.

Helping students to manage their own emotions so that they feel in control on exam day is a key part of exam preparation. Practising mindfulness is a great way to do this. In our ‘Three good things’ activity, students write down three good things that happened over the year which helped them prepare for exam day and the reasons why. This is a simple activity which boosts students’ confidence and gives them a sense of achievement.

Learn more about this and other mindfulness activities in the ‘Exam-day ready’ pack on the Cambridge Exam Preparation Journey hub.
