Aleena Imran - Blog #2 Term 2 - Grade 8A

 


Howdy, readers! I’m back with another blog, not sure how long it’s gonna be. But you know, it’ll always be a good one! Let’s not keep you waiting, here we go! 

Yet Another week, another blog. Not that surprising anymore as we write blogs once a week. I can say this week was quite ordinary. Wake up, go to school, go back home and study. Quite the usual routine, isn’t it?  As we head further in the term, the closer we get to our exams. Which basically means, more assignments, homework and tests! Eugh, quite the stress isn’t it? Welp, can’t do anything about it. Join me as I  reflect on my past week.

 Without further ado, let the chaos begin! 


Nov 20, 2023 - Tackling the Class

As usual, we began with our warmup, Squardle. Since the other grades did it before us, there were only around ten words left. Adelia and Hyeono were guessing most of them, so we completed the warmup pretty quickly. I think I wasn’t even able to guess a word because of how fast they were! That’s quite some speed.


Before starting the vocab, Miss decided to let us play a few games of Quordle. Somehow, we failed the first game of Quordle. I was quite surprised as we usually ace it in three minutes. Then we continued with more games of Quordle, which was somewhat successful.


Shortly after playing Quordle, we started with our usual vocab practice. Since I already studied the unit before, I was assigned to handle the class. I was quite shocked to say the least because in what situation does that happen?! I then gave everyone two words to look up the meaning for. After assigning everyone words, we started with the Vocab practice. It was a bit stressful since I was in the front of the class but it was actually quite amusing.


Lastly, we played a game of contexto. It was quite average. Though I don’t remember the answer, I can recall that we got it in 56 guesses. Which is pretty good compared to our other games of Contexto. One time, it took us 101 guesses to guess the word. You thought it was a hard word? Nope, it was simple. Welp, all I can say is that I found this Aep meeting extremely interesting and entertaining.


Nov 21, 2023 - A Vocab Quiz

Per usual, we started off with a warmup. This time, it was Quordle. I can say it was pretty easy and fast. This game was also quite entertaining as we got to work together to get the answers.


Shortly after the warmup, we kicked off with the vocab quiz. I wasn’t really afraid since I had already studied two weeks before ( 🤭 ). As per usual, we went around the table spinning the wheel. When it was my turn, I got the words belittle and menial, and luckily I was able to answer it. I felt quite relieved there. Since Rayan didn’t get the first two words correct, Miss gave him another chance. I find that super kind to do.


In the end, we answered one question of our seatwork. It was about putting the questions in order to the text. I remember the answer being 3142. I never really have encountered a question like this so I had a bit of difficulty in this.

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.
