AEP Blog #2.4 “Half a term, half a term”

 Welcome to 2024 folks~ I really wanted to make this blog have your typical blog introduction that you see on this page but lets make it a little more personal this time. 


This interesting academic chapter of my life will surely come with twists, Im sure my classmates are wondering about the same thing of themselves.Since 1st semester has finished, and the half of 2nd semester has as well — leaves us with another half. But whats interesting about this half is how much faster time will fly here in comparison to the earlier ones. It feels like as if it is the end of the year, and its not helping when we have several responsibilities packed up — its much more easier to lose yourself in the concept of time. 


NOW! On to the good stuff — an introduction of AEP 2024.


For the games we play in class, I always find the most fun whike playing contexto. I think I remember explaining how the game works in a previous blog, so I wont this time. However, that meeting we played contexto after such a long time made me realise you have to be consistent even if its just for the warmups you do in class. Its normal afterall to feel a little woozy after you see your own classmates woozy too. Domino effect! 


Most of the vocabulary we are learning right now are very interesting; something that is hard to understand but is so much fun to actually know.We are working on vocabularies related to domestic violence and such terminologies work different with how the british and americans say it, as well as a reason behind it. Its so interesting to listen to the history behind these words because knowing the root origins of anything makes you understand it so much more. 


Its a little funny because Ive been sharing them to my own family as fun facts. (Hahaha) 


A quick one for now, have an awesome day ahead dear reader! 


P.S. Praying for a good year for all of us💖

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.
