AEP Blog 1.5 yay

 Back with another short blog this time. Not much to talk about, it's only been a week since the last blog. But I do prefer these short blogs they're easier and more fun to write. 

On Monday we did some vocabulary work. Not a quiz. That was for Tuesday. We studied the words and defenitions in unit 4 during class instead of studying them at home like usual. Miss didn't want us to have more work since we already had to do our blog. And she also mentioned it seemed to work better and allow students to memorize the defenitions easier. I enjoy this way of doing this though. Everyone was assigned 2 to 3 words and given about 5 minutes to find the defenitions. Then we'd go one by one matching words to their defenitions in the test accesible through the same website we use for our vocabulary quizzes. Excited to do this again tommorrow!  

On tuesday we started off with our vocabulary quiz about the words we learnt on monday. I got all my words correct so hooray! Afterwards i assumed another essay was coming. But we actually decided to do something different. We were split into two groups. Girls versus boys. And we were to try and draw a graph based of an essay written by none other than the infamous IELTS Liz. I didn't think we'd get very close at first but both groups had a pretty acurrate graph. The boys got the win though because our chart was bigger and the trends were easier to see becuase of it. By now i thought surely it would be essay writing time but nope! Miss had another activity prepared for us. A rather fun one actually. I do hope we get to do it again sometime. Again we split into two groups. Girls versus boys yet again. And this time we played what i suppose could be described as "reverse pictionary"? Basically miss would give one group an abstract painting and that group would have to explain and describe the painting to the other group. And they would have to attempt to draw it on the smart board. We had around 15 minutes each. It was quite fun and suprisingly our paintings weren't that far off from the original. Woohoo!

Anyway that's it for this quick blog. See you again next week i assume!

The "Queen of Vocab" - Blog 1.5 - Aire M.

Hello... to pretty much no one. Probably no one except Miss Disa reads these blogs, no matter how much effort I put into them. I really like writing these blogs, as they are my way of venting all my feelings and thoughts out into the void. With that being said, here's the blog :) Yeah, sorry for the short intro today. I'm feeling sleepy 😪   10/02/23 Today in AEP, we used the whole 5th period trying to complete Squaredle , and in the last 10 minutes, Miss told us we'd get 7 merits each if we finished. It didn't seem like a long way off, as we just had 14 words left. We didn't get the 7 merits, but we only had... 7 words left? Still pretty good. In the second period, Miss Disa explained how exams can trick you. Well, to be more specific, questions that, if you didn't read the instructions, you could get wrong. And those questions were very easy. All you had to do was read the instructions. But somehow, even the smartest people can get tricked. (Honestly, Summer,...

Peanuts!! - Blog 2.1 - Aire M.

Welcome, ladies and gentlemen, to the world of Blogger! I am your writer, Aire Marcellana, presenting to you a blog of quality writing, containing a girl's simple hopes and dreams. Hopes and dreams crushed knowing like 5 people reads these. I do still find fun in writing these, however, especially since I love to write. Our first few lessons in the 2nd term proved to be quite fun and entertaining to write about. I got a bit stressed on our first lesson, but all in all, a fantastic start to the new term. Reflecting on last term, although I did put effort into AEP, I didn't prioritize it as much as I should've, even if it is a minor subject. I am grateful I got a good grade, yet I have high hopes for the terms to come. 11/06/23 We started off our term 2 with some good old Squaredle . Grades 7, 9, and 10 have already paved the way to finishing the Squaredle by having already completed the easy words. With 63 out of 79 words settled, our class went on a journey to get all of th...

Short. Sweet. Simple! - Chloe Lloveras- Blog 1 T1- AEP10

      Back at it again! The new school year has begun and AEP along with it. But this year, it comes with a twist: a much more jam-packed schedule and more essay-writing. Did I mention that the vocabulary quizzes are back and that blogs will be more frequent now? No? Well, you're in for a treat!      We hadn't even met for the first session yet, but we were already juggling assessments like a syllabus quizlet, a "what's your English level?" test, and even a knowledge quiz about IELTS writing task one, something I haven't encountered before. When our first meeting did commence, it wasn't until a week later due to the heavy rainfall and strong winds so classes were canceled. As you might've guess, we were already behind and AEP hadn't even begun yet!  Before starting, Miss Disa established the basics for the new school year: 1. Every meeting will begin with a word game with a five-minute time limit. If we don't finish in time, we'll still mov...
