Teeth (3A8)
Teeth are important because they allow us to cut and crush food sufficiently so that it can be digested. The idea is to increase the surface area of the food so that saliva and other chemicals can get to work on it effectively. This video shows how each kind of tooth is important in that job.

Burning brandy (3A9)
Some drinks contain alcohol. The alcohol is sufficient to allow them to burn. This video shows how that can be used to create a mulled drink. Alcoholic drinks contain too much energy to be used by the body immediately, and so much is stored as fat, which is why consuming large quantities of alcohol leads to people becoming fat.
Please point out the harmful nature of alcohol consumption, and that it should not form any part of a young person's consumption.
