Aleena Blog 1&2

Not too long I was just writing my first blog for the year, now I’m here again to write about my experience with aep. Every lesson means a new thing to learn. Maybe not every lesson, we just redo the previous but with a little bit more difficulty, which I could say is very helpful for building our skills. This is isn’t even the start of the blog ^_^

Without further ado, let the blog begin!


Aug 14, 2024 -  paraphrasing again?

This time Hyeono got up and did our Squardle. This time, I wasn’t able to say anything because my brain just decided not to. Even if I tried, I don’t think I would’ve helped a lot. Although we tried our best, we only managed to get 16/30. 


Afterwards, we were given a paper regarding how to paraphrase. It had step by step examples making it easier for us to understand. I found the paper very useful, it really makes our life’s easier if you’re gonna paraphrase 


The only new things we did were paraphrasing, but with actual steps. On the first go, we were told to do it with only the first four steps. Which didn’t include adding extra information or twists, just switching up the words a bit. On the final go, we had to it until step six. The devastating thing is I wasn’t able to finish all the twelve questions. It wasn’t just me, Summer also didn’t finish it, which made me feel a little better because I wasn’t alone.


Aug 21, 2024 - the same worksheet?

We began our lesson with a quick game of Hurdle, one of our least favorite games. I think most of the time I wasn’t really paying attention, my brain wasn't functioning properly. But our pen holder for today was Mysha!! I don't know where or when but when I looked at the board, she was there. After some time, we managed to finish it in five tries, the word was “Decal”. Shortly after the warmup, we were given back our notebooks to check upon our past answers. I was able to get a “good effort” but I’m rooting for an excellent one!


We then had a very quick reading of Dogonews, the article was about Elephants. It started with hyeono and ended with me. Actually not me, the article was a bit longer so some boys got extra lines to read. 


First we had to give three points of a question given, then it was quickly checked by Ms Disa. This time we were gonna do the same worksheet but a bit different, it included an overview which meant to add comparison of the data. It was the second period of the class, with only thirty minutes remaining. The stress was slowly rising in me when I realized I barely had any time. I only answered four questions out of who knows what. But at least I wasn’t alone, Summer also didn’t finish it. Actually, I’m not sure if anyone did. But during the writing, Hyeono and Sid suddenly started talking and talking, I’m not familiar with what they were talking about.

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...
