New Chapter- Haziq -Blog 1 T2- AEP 10

 Welcome back ladies and gentlemens, boys and girls to my blog and I'm back again to recap on what happened in the last few  weeks. Although term two just started, a lot of things have happened and new face can be seen.


As I previously mentioned, Kirani, a 15-year-old student from Indonesia, is our  new classmate. Miss bestowed Kirani the magic pen to begin the week. Interestingly, our warm-up game that day was Squardle, and I already knew that she would struggle because of Janek. As she struggled to figure out how to use the smart board, words  began to come in, and as a result, Janek was nearly permanently banned from ever playing Squardle again.I guess luck wasn't on her side because it was one of our longest squardle game and she had to through the whole period of Janek just shouting random words.


The following day, our aep lesson resumed as usual, but before anything else, warm-up activities are essential. I sensed something was off when I walked into the classroom since Squardle was closed. She then opened a warm-up activity that I had never seen before, but it seemed like it was something the older students played. The game took me a heated minute to figure out, but as soon as I did, it was over. The warm-up game was quite brief and unsatisfactory. I personally don't love playing this game because it wasn't very entertaining.Afterwards, we proceed with lessons.


After a long time, we are finally doing a lesson on process diagrams.If i am not mistaken , process diagrams are step by step describing what is happening in the diagrams.In our case , our diagram was about a man-made structure that is used to generate electricity from wave power.The first step that miss told us to do was to list down the process and the words that we are going to use in the essay. By listing, it allows us to save more time because what we need to do is just to create sentences with the word we listed.Upone writing the essay, I was surprised at how manageable this is because I was able to finish it in one period which is rare every time I write an essay.


On the following week , we started of the class with Contexto requested by Emily 😒.Its been a while since we last play Contexto and it felt a little odd playing it because I am used to playing Squardle .The guess that was closed to the word was dream , place and sleep. We tried our to best to list out anything the relates to these 3 words but at the end , after numerous guesses and 3 hints , we were finally able to guess the word which was mind. Following that , we continue with writing the essay about the same diagram as before and I can definitely say that i improved not only from the word choices but also how i describe the process .With the spare time we played Quardle and with Janek guessing , we were able to completer 3 games of Quardle in under 10 minutes.

IM THE MAP! - Janek - Blog 2 - T3 - AEP 10

Although maps have always held a peculiar charm for me, a fascination sparked during childhood by watching episodes of Dora the Explorer and her indispensable map, my relationship with them has evolved. Previously, a map was a guide to travelling to places, a tool for discovering new café locations on trips, or simply a way to marvel at rather weird corners of the globe. However, my recent academic assignments have altered my perception of maps, making them less of an object of intrigue and more a source of stress. Essays have made maps worse! Before, engaging with a map never entailed writing an essay. If my father discussed a historical map, I’d happily delve into a verbal explanation rather than penning an analysis. But now, as a student in an Advanced English Program, essays have become a standard expectation. Tackling these assignments has been a significant challenge, turning my once enjoyable encounters with maps into a draining task. It’s clear now that the essays, not my exhau...

Miss Disa is back! - AEP 10- BLOG#4- JANEK

Now that the exams have finally concluded and the stress has lifted, thanks to the break and the high AEP spirit, it seems inevitable that a blog post is in order! The past weeks have been some of the most unusual and unpredictable I've ever experienced in AEP. With a few new faces, Miss Disa's absence, and sudden activities, let's delve into the latest updates on AEP. A Sudden Disappearance? On January 7, just a day before AEP's classes resumed, I felt a sense of fear. Fear that I might have forgotten something, a feeling I often experience. Despite this, I had to enter the class with confidence. However, my expectations took an unexpected turn. Miss Disa was nowhere to be seen. She had apparently left for the UK, and has not yet arrived in the Philippines. This had left many of us  confused, yet simultaneously relieved. No work, no stress! All we had to do was sit in the Filipino class doing nothing. Initially, that's what we thought, until a notification popped u...

Nurin’s AEP Adventure (Term 3 #1)

Hey blog!!! Under some ciscumstances, I have relapsed into my old habits of procrascination and I’m really not proud of that :,) But that’s okay, I’m still in progress and of course I’m gonna have ups and downs. Embracing any chance to change myself for the better, always. Anyways, IT’S TERM 3 ALREADY?!?!? My my, time flies like a speed jet to space. I’m like a leap away from graduating and that thought scares me, in an exciting way. I cannot even imagine yet what the future holds for me and I’m eager to find out. For now, nothing much is going on except for preparations of the musical production on March 9th. So I’ve just been really busy with dance trainings and rehearsals here and there. Expectations are really high for the Grade 12 so we have to give it our best and perform to our fullest potential.  I have been putting off works in the last moments of previous term. I got my Cambridge exam result and it brought me back down to my dark pit, I never want to get out of there like...
