Mysha M - Blog 2.1

 
This may contain: a box filled with lots of different types of fruit inside of mesh netting bags on top of each other
Finally, - after months of deep frustration, immense annoyance, and multiples asks to be invited - I am back,  my weary fingers once again grace this wretched website. Last I was here, I was but a mere eighth grader, with the "H" still attached to my keyboard. Now, I am not much different, just a little bit older (wiser? that's debatable) and regrettably, a little less H. 

As the collectable statues I’ve meticulously arranged along the wall silently bear witness to my struggle, let us embark on a journey through the chaos of the past few weeks, shall we? I am not excited. 


November 6, 2024 - Yikes.
Erm. What a day.

After revising the curriculum for the next term, we began a troublesome game of Scrabble. Creative alien-ish words like "schlored" entered the match. Definition? That's open to interpretation. Is it even real? Well, does it look real to you? 

Eventually, me. Aleena and Summer won. Yeah. I'm not gonna say anything else. Memorable day for bad reasons. 


November 13, 2024 - Kinda fun worksheets (I'm not good at titles. Can you tell?)
With deep fear, I returned to the AEP classroom, and surprisingly, it was better than I thought it would've been. 

Miss handed us a seemingly endless stack of seat work tied to our usual lesson. At first glance, I was utterly perplexed. The oddly horizontal worksheet lay on my annoyingly low desk, mocking my cluelessness as it awaited my less-than-brilliant brain to comprehend it.  

For the first few minutes, my thoughts consisted entirely of "Huh?". But then - finally - a spark of understanding. From there, everything clicked, and the task turned into an unexpected breeze. It started to become exciting, flipping each page. However, Miss eventually had to stop us; and I was surprisingly disappointed. 

November 20, 2024 - Hair Pulling Essay Writing

Every time we play Squaredle I have the urge to gouge my eyes out. Especially on that day; in which my incredible, excellent eyesight, paired with the clearness of the board (or rather lack there of), had a romantic dance atop my will to live. 

Uh - anyways. Miss granted us with a graph like I've never seen before. Percentages that didn't even go up to the top and increments that made next to no sense, were some of the few guest-stars on this strange amalgamation, 

Upon realizing the nonsensicality, Miss permitted us to not write the essay, but just revise our overview and paraphrasing skills if we believed we were capable. 


Well, that was my second term so far. I suppose I am excited for the upcoming months, but truly, I just want to sleep. We will conquer this and I will be less emotional ! Wheeeeeeeeeee

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...
