SURVIVINGG😀- Naboni(AEP10)_Blog: 2.2


Greetings and welcome back to another blog! How are you doing today? I can imagine you might be feeling a bit overwhelmed with everything going on. Personally, I'm already feeling bogged down by the sheer number of syllabus and assignments piling up. Next week is looking especially daunting, with quizzes scheduled almost every day. And don't even get me started on midterms - I'm not ready at all to face those yet. But, if I'm being honest, the one thing that's keeping me going right now is the thought of the upcoming Christmas break! I miss being able to sleep🥲.

Well, let's talk about the AEP classes now. The previous two weeks have been really productive I would say.

On the Monday of the first week, we started the class with the usual warm-up game Squardle. With 3 people consecutively handing the magic pen that day(one of them being me), we only ended up finding about 50/65 words. And just like that, we started and ended the class with Squardle. On that day, we also got our paper back on the previous essay writing of a processed diagram. I was quite disappointed with the score as I expected it to be a bit higher. Yet, it was just the first time and it does improve along the way!!

The next day, we again started the class with Squardle. This time there were very few words to solve which we did quite quickly. After that, we moved to our new traditional way of doing the vocab. You already know how it works. We each get some words and then find out their meaning to answer the online test on the vocab website. But this time, instead of solving the definitions we put the correct word u the sentences. I think I find this way more as it means you just not only know the definitions but learn how to use them in sentences. 

After that, in the second-period girls and boys were divided into two groups for group work for the processed diagram. But there was a twist in it! Instead of writing the essay, we heard Miss dictate an essay and both groups had to draw a diagram of the figure that involves the process of making cement using concrete. 

We, the girls rushed through the diagram but thankfully, we had some great artists with us. The final diagram came out pretty similar to the original. The boys one was pretty impressive.

On the second week, on Tuesday, after several warmup games, we had our vocab quiz. Thankfully, I remembered the meaning of the word I got. Guess the last minutes of studies actually work!;) After that, we moved to essay writing. First, miss wanted to give us a diagram of the life cycle of a frog. But, she quickly changed her mind and we had to do another one of the processes of how raw milk is produced as a final product to the customer. I felt like my writing was way better than the first one. 

That's it for now! Let's all look forward to the upcoming Christmas break as a much-needed opportunity to recharge and relax. And of course as well the exciting year end party and secret santa!!

Thanks for reading and take care!

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.
