Start of Another Term:DD

Hello, everyone. Welcome back to yet another blog! Can you believe it’s already the second term? It still feels like school just started just a few days ago. Anyway, I’m pretty happy right now because it’s the start of another term, and the workload isn’t much at the moment—but I don’t know how long I’ll be able to say that!

As for AEP, everything is going pretty smoothly. On the first day, we basically did nothing but play Scrabble. We started with our usual warm-up, after which Miss discussed the proper way to submit our homework. Then, we headed to the Scrabble table and split into four groups: me and Leo, Sashmeen and Meral, Osamah and Esad, and Sayum and Khalid. It was a tight battle! Sashmeen and Meral ended up winning, while Leo and I came in second place. Not bad, I guess, considering the letter choices we had. Overall, it was a really fun way to kick off the new term.

Miss Disa also posted a form on Google Classroom, asking us what we wanted to learn this semester. I chose Health and Medicine because it’s the topic I’m most interested in, and I felt like it would be the easiest out of all the options.

The next day, Miss Disa announced the votes. Health and Medicine won with the highest number of votes—just two. Thanks to Leo’s vote, it became the topic we’re going to learn about, and I was really happy.

Miss Disa gave us the worksheet, and it was so much easier than the lessons we had before. I mean, come on, we deserved it after dealing with all the weird, complicated words from the Politics and Business chapter! We finished the first two pages of the worksheet, and the exercises were pretty fun. For the first exercise, we had to guess a word that matched three given sentences. We worked on it individually first, and thanks to Sir Martin’s biology lessons, I got all the answers correct. The second exercise was all about abbreviations, where we had to write their full forms. I already knew ER, PM, and ENT surgeon, but now I know so many other healthcare-related abbreviations.

On the next page, there was a table where we had to match terms with their respective connotations. Below that, we had definitions, and we had to write the corresponding terms. This part was a bit trickier than the rest, so I left a few blanks. Miss Disa later discussed all the answers with us. Next week, we’ll have a baby quiz on it, so fingers crossed for that!

As I mentioned, classes are pretty easy on us right now. I really enjoyed learning all the medical terms in AEP, and I hope to get everything right on the quiz. Also, you’ll be hearing from me more often now, as Miss Disa switched us back to the blogging system. So, until the next blog—bye and take care!

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...
