Conceptualise Topic: (What did we learn; what is the essential idea?)

We learned how often transformations occur, and how wide the variety of various transformations are.

Appreciate Topic: (How is this topic important for life; why should we learn about it?)
This topic is important as students, especially high school students are going through personality changes all the time.
