change. - Janek - AEP10 - BLOG #6


The past week unfolded in an unexpected manner, catching many of us in class off guard. It was a departure from the routine, leaving us stunned, akin to the sensation of savoring a warm soup and then stepping out into the cold. This week brought about significant changes, the kind that demanded a momentary pause to absorb it all. Excitement surged within me, a sensation long absent. What were these changes, you might ask?

SQUAREDLE: THE NEW HURDLE

In every aspect, SQUARDLE emerged as the top contender, surpassing its predecessor, Hurdle. While Hurdle had enjoyed class favoritism for a considerable period, Squaredle now claimed the throne. Another wordle-based game, Squaredle proved more engaging than not only Hurdle but also other wordle games. Unlike its mundane counterparts, Squaredle delivered a refreshing gameplay experience, from which I derived genuine pleasure. Hurdle, reminiscent of childhood games, involved arranging letters to form specific words, a task ranging from four to nine letters. The introduction of Squaredle has alleviated the pressure of entering the AEP room, making mornings more enjoyable. It's a game that has injected vitality into my day, signaling that it's time to explore new avenues of enjoyment. Moving on and embracing change, it appears, can indeed be for the better.

DOGO NEWS MAKES A COMEBACK

While routine sessions can be pleasing, the monotony can become tiresome. Miss, adept at adapting to this, by changing various activities to keep things fresh, with DOGO news being a consistent favorite. In moments of extra time or when there's nothing else to do, DOGO becomes our go-to source for intriguing news. It never fails to captivate my attention with fascinating tales, such as female octopuses hurling rocks in aggression or the recent news of individuals using super shoes to break marathon records. Even in these seemingly trivial stories, DOGO manages to divert my mind from the stresses of remaining subjects and pending assignments, providing a comforting escape.

VOCAB IT IS I GUESS

Vocabulary practice stands out as one of the less stressful aspects of AEP. The recent change to adding practice sessions prove effective in accelerating our learning, and the advanced announcement of upcoming sessions reassures us about the time available for preparation. When Miss announces a vocabulary test, my heart maintains its steady rhythm, my eyes remain calm, and my overall demeanor stays collected. It's a relief to find myself less anxious about things beyond my control. A test involving just 20 words seems like a manageable challenge, and I express my gratitude to Miss for maintaining this approach.

ESSAYS ARE GETTING WORSE

The visual overload of bars, with their ups and downs, varied colors, and shading patterns, has strained my eyes. Despite the initial struggle, I pressed on, determined to decipher the prompt and produce the best possible output. The challenge peaked with a bar chart on the board, displaying disorderly bars without discernible patterns. Nevertheless, with a concerted effort, I managed to make sense of it. Giving up was never an option, and while the output may not have been perfect, completing it by the end of the period brought a sense of accomplishment.

In conclusion, another productive week unfolded, with tasks executed efficiently and laughter serving as our reward. The overall experience in AEP was delightful, and I look forward to what future terms have in store. Until next time, goodbye!

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.
