Scrabble or Scramble?- Chloe Lloveras- Blog 4 T2- AEP 10


This week's AEP was definitely out of the ordinary even though I'd previously said that things were finally getting back to normal in my last blog. Ironic, right?

Starting on Monday, AEP class started quickly with "Waffle." Naboni had the pen (AKA the magic wand) and swiftly accomplished it with the help of class, which included Victoria! A welcome addition to the class who got the chance to jump in head-first with essay writing, which was yet again another version of the cement and concrete essay. Third time's the charm I guess! 

Writing the essay was definitely a lot faster than my previous versions. It's probably because my brain is so used to all of the information already that I can even picture it now as I type. Haha!

The next day started off as what I had thought was a catastrophe! I was late coming into class because of the elementary's field trip that day. Since I ride the school service van, I was one of the last ones to be picked up (along with the other people living nearby) because the elementary school is so close by. Panic settled inside my stomach and I felt like I was scrambling. 

I waited for over an hour for the bus to finally arrive and, when it did, it was already around 8:45 a.m. And after picking up several other people, we, at last, started heading towards the school's direction. I managed to arrive sometime around 9:00 a.m., which I was thankful for because we had 2 periods of AEP anyway. 

Out of breath, I raced up to the 4th floor and knocked before entering the classroom. To my surprise, I hadn't missed too much because the class was just about to start playing "Scrabble!" There were four teams: Naboni and Leo; Victoria and Shasmeen; Meral and Kirani; and Janek and Haziq. 

I joined Janek and Haziq this time. After taking about 5 turns, it was time to wrap things up. The board this time was definitely tight this time because no one wanted to expand the board. In fact, most of us kept blocking each other. Haha! It was fun overall to come up with words to fit inside each other and my favorite definitely had to be "decay." 

In the end, this week was surely a whirlwind of emotions. I honestly thought we were done with all of the surprises, but I guess you can never quite tell with AEP. Overall, the week was an interesting one. Winning the "Scrabble" match was a much appreciated bonus as well. Hehe! Till next time.

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...
