Blog #3 T1 - 21/8/23 - Grade 8

 
Hello Blog 3, and welcome back readers! Whoops. I always end up doing my blog last minute. 

On Monday we had our first game day of the year! Since we were a larger class, Miss separated us into two halves, and on the first subject, the first group would play griddle while we played Scrabble.

I was teamed up with Kuk in Scrabble, and we were in the lead for most of the game until Summer's team placed a winning word at the end of the round that put them first. 

Next up, Griddle! The aim of the game was to beat the other team's score, which we weren't allowed to know. They kept telling us that they got 500, less than 300, roughly 600 to mislead us. We ended up getting up to 300-something. I don't remember. Luckily, that was enough to beat their 251. 

The next day, on Tuesday, we had silent seatwork-ing. The long five pages were quite overwhelming, and we couldn't finish it in time. 

This week's AEP sessions were my favourite so far, I had been craving a game day for so long and Monday was perfect :D

AEP BLOG 3.1 - Summer Rose S. Valdez

           The past couple weeks have been a whirlwind of maps and musicals, and it's quite fun.          March 5, 2025 - I Went on A Vacation...Somewhere      We began with a unique warmup this time.  By turns, we all had to say a new place on the map.  Each person has to retrace the steps of all the previous and so on.  I did not do well, but I didn't jot down notes of everyone's locations on my notebook anyway.  It was a memory game.  Afterwards, Miss taught us how one can remember things by remembering a place they visit often - by associating the different keywords with different objects or areas.     After that, we moved on to worksheets.  These worksheets involved maps and places and tenses.  For some reason, I forgot the difference between the past tenses.  Thankfully, though, I remembered what passive tense was.  Simple English fundamentals like types of...

yet another blog for this week

 yet again we do the thing where we type what we remember about the stuff that happened this week. So, there's not much tbh, there isn't much going on other than I picked up EP again since I think I'm suffering withdrawal with notoriety getting taken down and I'm cooking some video I made with someone showcasing some stupid shenanigans. So yeah is fine cruising so far (but so far)

Blog 3.1 - moving too fast? - huda g11

  From juggling multiple homework and exams to participating in the musical, parliament, varsity and maintaining a social life, the days seem to blur together in a relentless stream of busyness. It's easy to get caught up in the chaos and lose track of time, which left me constantly feeling like having to keep on picking myself up again to start the next new thing. Despite the chaotic nature of this school year, it's important to take a moment to pause and give ourselves a small break. I think that is where AEP comes in line. With the moderate pace of learning new vocabulary, which I have found to be very useful considering I've passed by many familiar vocabs as I go on with my studies ehehehe, AEP gives me a sense of pause to my hustling life with its conversation-filled lessons incorporated with productive discussions on the words as well as the inclusion of what I would see it as “old-style” learning. The idea of bringing back the usual norm before covid of ‘pen and pape...
