3. FORMULACION DE LAS ACTIVIDADES DE APRENDIZAJE

● Descripción de la(s) Actividad(es)

Reading can sometimes be a very solitary experience and many teachers prefer to get students to do it at
home, but with the right kind of text and the right tasks, reading can be turned into a fun, collaborative
and communicative experience. This lesson exploits an authentic text taken from a British Council website
and has a range of quite simple tasks that students work. There are also a range of suggestions for follow
up tasks and the complete original text at the end. In this workshop have to develop some reading
activities and complete missing information in different exercises, this way they can evaluate their own
learning and reading comprehension skills.

CAUSES OF MEMORY LOSS

1. ​Head Trauma​: A blow to the head can cause short and long-term amnesia. The impact can cause
bleeding or swelling in the brain. Many athletes suffer from these types of concussions.

2. ​Stroke​: A stroke causes the blood to stop flowing to the brain. This can damage brain tissue. Stroke
victims often suffer from short-term memory loss, which may improve over time.

3. ​Aging​: Forgetfulness is a normal part of aging. The human brain slows down as we get older. It is
normal for people over the age of 30 to have occasional memory lapses. People who are over 65 often call
these “senior moments.”

4. ​Poor Nutrition​: The brain requires protein and fat to function properly. A person whose diet is low in
vitamin B may suffer from memory problems.

5. ​Lack of Sleep​: Sleep deprivation makes it difficult to focus, learn, and remember what you take in. No
wonder it’s important to get a good night’s sleep before a test!

6. ​Drugs, Alcohol, and Medication​: The use and abuse of drugs or chemicals often result in memory loss.
While under the influence of drugs, the brain has difficulty encoding, storing, and retrieving memory.

​ . Depression or Anxiety: ​An inability to focus is often an early sign of depression. Stress can also make it
7
difficult to concentrate. Memory storage becomes more difficult when you can’t pay attention. People
may also block out memories that they don’t want to remember.

8. Pregnancy: ​Many pregnant women complain of having “baby brain.” Hormones fluctuate during
pregnancy. This can interfere with short- term memory.

9. ​Distractions: ​Noise, technology, and even too much activity can make it difficult to store memories.
Now you know why it’s useful to study in a quiet space, free from distractions, where you can focus on the
task at hand.

10. ​Dementia: ​Dementia is a more serious form of memory impairment. It results in the shrinking of the
brain. People who suffer from Alzheimer’s disease (the most common form of dementia) may get lost
suddenly. They may also forget how to do routine things, such as tying their shoes.

4. READ THE STATEMENTS BELOW. IF THE STATEMENT IS TRUE, WRITE T BESIDE THE SENTENCE. IF IT IS
FALSE, WRITE F.

1. ____ ​Concussions may result in short-term or long-term memory loss.

2. ____ ​Vitamin B is important for healthy brain functioning.

3. ____ ​When it comes to memory loss, alcohol is worse for the brain than lack of sleep.

4. ____ ​Everyone who gets older suffers from dementia.

5. ____ ​“Baby brain” is a myth. There is no reason for pregnant women to become forgetful.
