Aleena Imran - Grade 9 - BLOG 1.1

This is officially the first blog I’ll write for the new school year. It’s about time to get prepared for another year full of amazing memories and blogs too! It’s my third year writing blogs for aep, it all started from grade 7. At this point, I’ve mastered writing blogs. I wrote so many blogs over the years yet so why wouldn’t I think that? Even though it’s only the third week, we already have a piled up list of homework to do. Luckily, I managed to finish all of them without worrying about the deadline. Whoops, I got sidetracked.

Without further ado, let the blog begin!


Aug 07, 2024 - An article about cheese rolling?

As soon as our class started, we began with Squardle. This time we had to continue it, meaning all the easier words were done. We struggled to get ten words in the span of ten minutes, meaning we failed to get our merits that we were trying to work for. I do remember saying one word, which was “Tiara”. I'm even surprised I thought of anything due to my lack of energy and thinking .I kept on reminding everyone about how much time was remaining, slowly building suspense. Everyone was devastated when we lost.


Shortly after that loss, we went on DogoNews to read an article. I don’t think I’ve seen an article about cheese, a sport about cheese rolling. And that’s exactly why Ms Disa picked it, it was about cheese. We read the article the same old way, going around the class, each reading two sentences from the articles. Some people got sidetracked, so they were unfamiliar with where their sentences were. I knew right after reading articles, we would all state a fact from the article. As soon as I got my pen to write a fact, Ms Disa stopped me as she knew I would usually do that. After we all finished reading, we all told our facts, starting from hyeono. This meant I was the last one, the only thing I could do was repeat that one fact I had remembered in my mind.


We then received a worksheet, which was about paraphrasing. There were about nine questions that we had to answer. But this time we didn’t write on the worksheet, we wrote on our notebooks. It felt refreshing in some way to write in a new notebook. In the worksheet, you would have to choose a few words that you think can be changed for alternative words, the word “show” can be told as indicated, displayed or illustrated. But sometimes the synonyms we think of, don't exactly mean the same thing, which is what we call nuance, that we had to keep in mind. The worksheet itself was simple but it was a bit time consuming, but me and Summer finished right on time. When I was done, I was able to put my worksheet in my folder into the box, i felt some kind of joy in that. I think paraphrasing itself is a useful skill to learn as you can easily think of alternatives of words you're thinking of.

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...
