Synapse = connecting space between neurons
Chemicals carry the signal across the space.

When you work hard at something,the active neuronal pathwaysthicken with connections and
they get faster at thought.

What does this mean for successful learning?
1) Your brain forgets when it doesn’t have enough energy or rest.
2) The more your brain muscle practices, the easier it is for the brain to find information.
3) If you tie a new fact to other knowledge that your brain already has, it’s easier for the brain to “get it”.
