Greetings 2nd Term!- Meral- AEP 10- Blog 1

This second semester in AEP class commenced with Squardle– one of the most frequently played warm-up games in our class for good reasons. We ended up with 50 out of 79 words, 11 of which were already pre-filled by another grade level. As always, Squardle was an exciting morning exercise, a mental stretch that primed us for the day ahead. 

In addition, Kirani, a new student, was welcomed to our AEP class. After previously convincing her on the wonders of AEP, she decided to settle in. Yay! I hope she feels welcomed and has adjusted to the way things go around here <33.

As Squardle went on for the majority of the period, Miss Disa distributed our finals, consisting of the two essays we had each written. Although I’m satisfied with my score, there are improvements I’ll try to implement for my future essays this semester. 

The following day, I was absent because I had pulled a late nighter without coffee, whilst completing an English assignment. For these reasons, I overslept that morning, missing the two periods of AEP, but luckily, I was able to catch up swiftly. Apparently, they worked on writing an essay about two process diagrams on the generation of electricity from wave power.

The week after, we started class with the usual Squardle. Upon completing the 62 words in several minutes, we spent the remaining time completing the essay from the previous week. In the meantime, I jotted down the key points and a simple overview to work on the full composition of the essay after classes.

The next day, Contexto took the stage with “mind” as the word of the day, sparking a flurry of guesses, passing over the 50- guess mark. We then worked on the final essay of the process diagrams, illustrating the generation of electricity from wave power. Now that I have received my essay back, I’m happy to report a 95%, which is by far the best score I’ve received. With that, we ended AEP class with three consecutive Quordle games.

Just as the earlier weeks in AEP, this one too concludes with a sentiment of achievement and room for improvement. As the second term unfurls, it’s a canvas of endless possibilities, awaiting our inscriptions, beckoning us to colors of knowledge and experiences in AEP.

Thank you for reading this and I’m hoping to see you in the next one!

Signing off,

Meral

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...
