Dear Brain Fitness Topics Students,
Welcome to the second week of the new semester!
During our first week of class, we reviewed important information about the course, including our class website, BrainHQ exercises, and the structure of our weekly lessons. We also explored why brain fitness matters, the importance of learning about the brain, and the benefits of maintaining a healthy brain.
Each week, you will receive an email with important information about the Brain Fitness program, upcoming lessons, and a brief review of the previous week. If you do not receive these emails, please check your Junk or Spam folder or the Email tab on bfclass.com.

Week 2: From Judgment to Goal Setting
This week, you will explore four everyday thinking skills that are practical expressions of executive functions: judgment, problem-solving, decision-making, and goal setting.
Understanding how these skills work together is the first step toward strengthening them throughout life.
Through engaging activities, real-life examples, and reflection, you’ll have the opportunity to recognize these skills in your own everyday life and discover ways to use them more effectively.
Let’s explore how your brain helps you think, choose, solve, and achieve!
