New Term, New Face!! [Humaira Rahid Naboni;Term-2, Blog-1]

Hello Everyone! Welcome to the first blog of Term 2!

It's the start of another term and AEP has to introduce us to a new topic! But hey, before that, there is a new AEP member now! Kirani!! She joined FIS just in the 2nd Term and on her first day, she was thrown into the decision to choose between AEP and Filipino. I sort of used some advertising skills (learned in English) to persuade our new friend, Kirani, to join our beloved AEP class. Being an Indonesian girl, I am pretty much sure she would have joined AEP anyway but I would love to think my advertising did some help! I am happy to say that she is now a part of our AEP class

Now let's go through all the classes we had so far. On the very first day, it was Monday morning and our warm-up game was Squaredle. Miss Disa gave Kirani the rein over the magic pen. If I were her I would freak out at such responsibility on the very first day, given that, forming the words in Squardle can be quite a challenge. She pulled off the magic pen quite well though! There were 79 words to be formed on that day, but we managed to find out only 50. Later on, we also got our final paperback. The score I got is somewhat satisfactory for me, but I hope to do better this term. 

On the second day, the class had a new Warm-up game which I unfortunately had missed for being late. When I entered the class in a rush, I saw Miss already starting a new topic on the board. I soon found out that we were learning another form of Essay Writing; this time we had to describe processed diagrams instead of bar charts. First, miss taught us the structure of the Essay which I found pretty similar to the bar chart one. Later on, Miss showed us the first ever question that I encountered of the process diagram. It was two diagrams of a structure that generates electricity by utilizing wave power.  I think, at first glance, the diagram was not that hard for me to comprehend as it just showed some flow of the elements(water and air) that caused the mechanical process. Miss then told us to write the first part of the essay. After a while, when we all were done we around the room to hear each of our paraphrasing prompts. I think Miss told us mine was somewhat okay.

The following week, Miss Disa asked me to choose a warm-up game. My mouth immediately blabbed out Contexto as for some reason this is the first game that always comes to my mind. The word of the day was "mind". Of course, it took us a while to find it out as AI managed to confuse us by providing wild scores. Later on,on the next day, Miss Disa read us a perfect version of an essay on the processed diagram that we had encountered in the last class. I managed to scribble down some notes, especially vocab while Miss Disa recited it. Then we were asked to write the essay once again. This essay came out so much better than the other ones I wrote. I hope I receive a good grade.

When we were done, we had some spare time left. At that time, we played several rounds of Quardle with the method of Janek's that cancels out almost all the letters.

That was all for the week. I am excited to see what will happen next in AEP. I will keep you updated!;)

yet another blog for this week

 yet again we do the thing where we type what we remember about the stuff that happened this week. So, there's not much tbh, there isn't much going on other than I picked up EP again since I think I'm suffering withdrawal with notoriety getting taken down and I'm cooking some video I made with someone showcasing some stupid shenanigans. So yeah is fine cruising so far (but so far)

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...

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...
