Reflection 1 - Hong

First day of actual lessons for AEP in Grade 12, I did barely any of my blogs last year so I have almost no clue on how this works. We talked about time management, nothing too crazy, it was more like a place where most of us realised how crap our time management was. Like half the class basically had this massive issue regarding their time. I don't even know how some of the other students manage to pass while having a schedule so horrid.

It just started by us getting papers handed with an article regarding time management and how to improve yours. I happened to get the longest one out of spite which I skimmed through until I realised that about half of the whole paper was just a bunch of ads. I basically read through everything necessary just to notice the whole passage is about how the writer has this deep hatred for phones or something, so i just started drawing beards onto the picture of the author. There was a bit of yapping here and there but we were pretty much forced to shut up most of the time. Afterwards, everyone gave their insights on the topic one by one talking about how lame their lives are. Some just admitted to mostly sleeping and others talked about how they don't really care at all. I personally talked about my issue of procrastinating which I wanted to solve, that I wasn't able to solve, which is why I am writing my first reflection a day before the next AEP class. In all honestly, I never really considered time as a massive subject nor did I view it with gratitude, I will probably one day realise when I'm all wrinkly and old that this time I spent was really precious or something. Nevertheless, for now, I don't really care.

That's how the first session went. Regarding time management, I have attempted a few times to keep a proper schedule and use it throughout like a little nerd, but most of the time, my peculiar sleep schedule messed my schedule up basically causing everything to return to zero.

Blog #3

First blog of the year! This blog includes the padlet of many, many AEP meetings.  Last padlet of the year (December 10, 2024). On that day, we didn't do much, just played games. We first played Scrabble (which Selim won) and then played Waffle. Had fun that day. First padlet of the year (January 7, 2025). The break went by so quickly, it didn't feel like 2 weeks at all. I wish it was longer. Anyways, at the start of the class, Miss Disa asked us about the lessons she taught us and if we learned/remembered anything from it. After that, we played Scrabble once more. Somehow Selim beat us again. Selim is insanely lucky in Scrabble for some reason. He had nearly double everyone's score. He had around 120 something points if I remember correctly. We then played Contexto after we finished playing Scrabble. I enjoyed AEP and had a lot of fun. Missed lying on my bed though. Second padlet (January 14, 2025). The class began with us playing Unlimited Wordle. It looked and seemed lik...

Busra D (AEP 3.1)

ITS ALREADY 3ND TRIMESTER THAT IS CRAZY. Time goes by so fast like flash I’m excited and nervous at the same time for this 3rd trimester!!  This time I will do my blog different , I’ll just explain what we did most of the time in AEP. Before we get to the main part of our topic of game we always play word puzzles to get our mind moving, it helps us not sleep in AEP heh. Sometimes we also play scrabble which is really fun. I lost my streak sadly :( Jia is really good I’m usually 2nd place. One of my core memorize is dogo news miss makes it so fun to read and has interesting topics ( just like the banana taped on the wall) it will never get out of my mind. We also do listening tasks which is alright I guess. Well anyways this 2nd trimester went by so fast hope to see you next time byeee!!!.

End and the start of term!

Helloooo everyone! Welcome with another blast! See, your favorite blogger is not late this time!!! And that is because it's just the start of another term, and the workload from school is quite light. Can you believe it's the last term already?? I am still in disbelief—only 2/3 of grade 11 is left, and then our final year of high school... I don't even want to think about it! We have learned a lot of things in AEP last term, including discovering new games and learning a lot more of Miss Disa's fun anecdotes. AEP this year has taught me a lot of technical terms as we have been getting lessons on very niche and specific topics. You know how a word appears a lot when you newly learn it? Now, due to my expansion of vocabulary, I started seeing the words I am learning everywhere, and that brings a bit of peace in me, as I think, well, I am learning something. We had worksheets on Healthcare, Crime and Punishment, Business, and Politics. My favorite among them was the health...
