AEP BLOG 4 - Summer Rose S. Valdez

 

        Going into this blog feels extremely refreshing.  After around a month or more without blogs, I am finally here once again, staring at a blank digital page as I reflect on the past week.  Looking at my Coolsis grades, I have decided to try my best at writing and structuring this blog.  This year also seems to have way more blogs than the previous, which was quite the surprising change and encourages us to write more often and act less lazy.  


        September 25 - School Uniforms and Chaos

        The first meeting of the week was a blast.  After a chaotic Squaredle warmup, we were ready to learn and discuss about school uniforms.  In groups, we listed as much pieces of clothing as possible that can be worn in school uniforms.  I enjoyed brainstorming words with my groupmates, but also found it stressful with the limited time allotted.  After that, all our groups presented our words.  It was very intriguing for me to learn about new vocabulary and how my peers viewed school clothing.  I also found it amusing, as each group attempted to use many variations of one piece of clothing.  Miss Disa then taught the class about school uniforms, which was very informative.


        September 26 - Preparation for the Vocab Quiz

        I found this meeting delightful and enlightening.  We finally managed to beat a Squaredle game after multiple attempts in previous lessons, although it was a very easy level.  After that, Miss Disa then assigned each of us 2 words that will be part of our next vocabulary quiz.  Mine were blasé and annul, which I had to find the meanings of.  The words were interesting and easy for me to understand.  There was a crossword on the smartboard that contained all of our words.  Thankfully, I managed to cross both of my words out before anyone else could.  I was immensely entertained watching my classmates scramble and wrangle trying to cross out as much words as they could.  Soon after that, we were tested with our words.  It was enlightening to learn about all the new words and definitions everyone was assigned.


        We have had a very interesting week, and managed to learn plenty of new vocabulary despite the many class suspensions.  I greatly enjoyed the meetings we had last week as well as writing this blog.  I do hope that our future lessons will be as, if not more, enlightening and intriguing as this one.

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...

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...

i stopped counting the blogs at dis point

       Ah boy here we go again Another week, another blog about random stuff. Holy hell everything moves so fast that I feel like I could take a nap and suddenly miss 21 different events. it's a little odd when you get pulled out of your usual schedule and are forced to do a practice exam but like 'they' say: "practice makes perfect." also been rewatching RVB, kinda sad cuz Rooster Teeth decided in a Hail Mary attempt to earn some of that sweet moolah that they should make a large majority of their shows paywalled on yt and you have to use the inconsistent official Rooster Teeth website that is absolutely plagued with stunky add that no one wants. yeah more ads than YOUTUBE ,  AND THEY'RE ALL UNSKIBBABLE BECAUSE OF COURSE THEY ARE AND YOU GET 4 OF THEM EVERY EPISODE (some at the start and then some midroll ads). I know it is to push people to join their site and subscribe to FIRST but Oh ho hoh man... that is a level above despicable.
