『 Blog #1 』


☀

So, basically I was thinking about what I should write here because I already wrote many things in padlet. But I have to, and I want to write longer here. It will look nice anyways with longer writing. And there is more time to write(I don’t have to finish within one day). I am thinking about a better way to write this.

First of all, what I always feel when I take this class is that it's very slow—not in an insulting way— but it's going at a constant pace. There's something special about this speed that makes me feel somewhat stable. I think it's a very different way to do it than other classes. We've been doing a lot of seatwork lately, but I like the fact that our class routine is still pretty much the same. We start with a simple educational game, do some seatworks, and then talk. Especially the last one, it's always the same! I'm sure we started with some random topic, but before you even notice it, the topic moves on to something else. I feel like these simple talks relieve my stress at school.


This week was the same as always. At the beginning, we played a word game that was sometimes difficult and sometimes easy. After that, we made small talk and read some interesting news. It takes us a while to read the news, but in the end, we did it all well. Right? By the way, I'm still not sure about my English skills, especially grammar, but I hope to get better by the end of the semester. I think it's very helpful to write freely in this way. 


I decided to write a long one, but the topic is already running out. So I have to talk about something that's been around for a while. The typhoon ruined a lot of things. Like, something I've been writing consistently. I was neatly indicating how many weeks it was, but I was confused. So maybe the class date I wrote down was wrong. From now on, what I write on this blog should never confuse dates. Anyway, the typhoon actually led me to online assignments—which are much more annoying than normal assignments—and I'm very frustrated with that. Ha ha. Of course, the padlet assignment has been done in that way for a long time, so it's an exception. 


Conclusion. This week has left me hungry. Just kidding, haha. This week has comforted me when I'm tired in many ways. I don't know why, but I'm tired because of the increased homework, but I have to work hard. If you don't, your grades might go down in no time. Anyway, it's nice that this class is consistent. I've said it all along, but it's like a therapy class—I haven't actually been there, so I don't know what it is like but it's like that anyway—and it feels good. I'm really looking forward to the next lesson. It's nice to have a day I look forward to!

Aleena Imran - BLOG #3.2 - Grade 9

  I honestly cannot believe we are already halfway through the third term, it feels like we started it yesterday. This will be one of the last blogs we’ll be writing for the school year, which seems so crazy. As much as I’m not fond of writing blogs, it’s still a reminder that we shared our moments together in AEP.   March 5, 2025 -  An Off-Board Warmup? This warmup was unlike our other ones. We usually have our warmups on the board, such as Wordle, Hurdle or waffle. But this time, all we had on the board was a map. Everyone had to state one sentence about the two maps shown on the screen, but there was a plot twist, you had to remember what the previous person stated and add on to it. As more people stated their sentences, it only got difficult, it meant you had to remember more sentences, but in the correct order. I wasn’t able to remember the sentences in order, but I still enjoyed watching other students struggling to remember the sentences.  Later on, we g...

Abracadabra — Leo Blog 3.2

 This term, we've begun with a list of terms related to environment, ranging from the devastating crises happening around the globe to the lovely descriptions of catastrophes caused by man. While it's a very fun and a not-so content-heavy topic, it reminds us that we can't say ' abracadabra ' to felled trees and watch as they rise from the ashes of our ancestors. Well, it's a shame, really. Would've loved to see some of the forests and wildlife that existed before the world began pumping steam and breathing coal. The first thing we did when we got to the third term was pairing words to form collocations. There were a variety of them, 42 collocations to be exact, and we had to figure them out. Most were easy, words we knew were things like 'climate change' or 'heat wave', but some were new. 'Paddy farming', 'septic tanks' and other words were quite interesting. Unfortunately, I wasn't there for the AEP period the week after...

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...
