Blog 3.1 - Crafts and Speeches! [Izzah] Gr12

Crafts!

This lesson for AEP, we got to be more hands-on with our activities, instead of writing or reading anything we learned to be more practical, and that is, by learning how to tie knots into cute little keychains or a WEAPON. As well as making origami frogs have a tense competitive competition, the survival of the fittest frogs.

Tying a knot seems harder then most people think, you need to be very good with moving your fingers around a string, Hanis and Darren's fingers were literally blue doing the activity, and a lot of us struggled with keeping the baby in the string, it was hilarious to watch each other attempt at being patient. With a few anger issues popping out from a piece of string, it was surely a fun activity to complete despite the stress of our musical coming up. Hanis’s baby ball really turned out nicely, I wonder how she's so patient with it. In the end, it was just me smacking my defective ball on the table and on Nurin, very entertaining. 

Our next activity was frog origami, I was particularly excited about this one, I used to be obsessed with origami, especially miniature ones, cute delicate ones. Instead of making one, I made two, my frog no 1 Albert which was about the size of my palm, and frog no 2 jr, the size of the tip of my finger. We had a race, I raced against Ayse in the first round and I absolutely WRECKED HER, just kidding, I guess cause my frog was miniature which meant that I could leap higher cause of how light my frog was, the second person I ABSOLUTELY DESTROYED, was William. My frog is literally the one and only undisputed champion of all frogs despite how tiny it was, it would be fun to have a competition of all the winners from each grade

We also did speech reading, and I may say this has probably been the best app lesson we've done yet. Everyone had a great laugh to see each other possess ourselves into these iconic and influential people in the past. People who have shaped history changed lives eventually to what has become of the world to this day good or bad. I played the role of Elizabeth the 1st giving a speech to the English army as they set off to fight the Spanish. I wonder how hard it must have been for her to rule England as a woman. She really shows us how strength is not defined by our gender or sex but rather by how minds.

And So It Begins...- Chloe Lloveras- Blog 3 T3- AEP 10

  Maps have become my new enemy. I know this may sound dramatic, but I really just can't seem to like them. As an artist who loves anything related to colors and drawings, you'd think a map of all things would be right up my alley, but you'd definitely be wrong. The feeling of facing your adversary is like no other- this desperate thirst to defeat them, dying to be quenched. And so it begins... The day before the exam, we played "Squardle," but the joy it gave us upon completion was short-lived as it was replaced by the impending atmosphere of doom looming above us. I felt a pit in my stomach when I walked into the classroom the next morning. But I was prepared...or so I had thought. I only managed to score 87%, which in reality was actually a 77% because Miss Disa added 10 points to help bump up our grades. I barely passed really, but that doesn't matter now. When I had finished taking the exam, all I could think of was that it was finally over. I could relax...

AEP- Blog 3.3

 Hello hello hello there! We meet again, for one. last. blog.  Woah, it has been a ride hasn't it. A year sure does go by fast. It seriously felt not that long ago that I had written my first blog of the year. Definitely did not feel like 9 whole months. Reading said blog made realize now that I had nothing to worry about after all. That I have been proven wrong about not having fun in AEP. Sure, the work has gotten a lot tougher and was doubled to what we had last year. But hey, we're in G8 now and that's to be expected, AEP or not. And we still managed to play word games, some old, some new, and challenged ourselves in the best way possible. The seatworks we had DEFINITELY challenged me this year. But I wouldn't say all of them were so bad, only some. I really enjoyed the vocab quizzes. It really did help expand my vocabulary, and now whenever I read a book and encounter a word from one of the quizzes, I get all excited cause I know what it means now. I feel a bit sad...
