AEP BLOG #3.2 - Summer Rose S. Valdez

 



        With the month of March left behind us and a week-long "break", we immediately delve into the class of AEP.  To be entirely honest with you, the break did not provide nearly enough rest it should have.  As usual.  The following lessons of AEP were intriguing to say the least and have introduced my classmates and I new challenges and fish.


April 1 - Fun with Fish

        It was an unusual day for sure.  One of the reasons as to why is that I figured out the word for our Hurdle warmup game.  Usually, I can only solve these types of games at home where the school air does not fry my vocabulary skills.  It was a personal accomplishment that seems trivial to most.


        This day's seatwork was mind-bending.  True, False, or Not Given??  How am I supposed to know?  It was much different than the usual AEP seatwork.  The extracts were shorter and Miss Disa occasionally only allotted us three minutes to solve a question.  It was not easy.  But as we answered more questions, I slowly grasped the topic more.


        Moving on from the seatwork that completely racked our minds, we started reading DOGOnews.  It was about the Fish Doorbell that was made to assist fish.  Shortly after, we opened the website ourselves.  I could feel the tension in the room waiting for a fish to come.  Time went by and none were spotted.  But after a while, I saw a sliver of silver swim past the camera.  Fish.  Finally.  A bunch of my male classmates noticed this, and Miss Disa did not believe them.  It was fun.



April 2 - True, False, and What??

        Deluxe Waffle was great.  Moving on.  Once again, we now stand face-to-face with our mutual mortal enemy.  Or three enemies.  True, false, and not given.  I actually found it a bit easier this time after all that practice.  It is not a concept we have fully understood yet, but maybe, someday, we will.


        


        The things we have learnt this week were difficult for sure.  But a part of me finds it refreshing - trying something that was different and more challenging.  Learning is the point of going to school after all, so much thanks to AEP for providing us with knowledge and skills we haven't acquired in previous years.

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...

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)

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...
