AEP Reflection #2.4

 Today, this reflection will be a little different.. rather than my typical essay — I figured I’ll also use this as my own reminder/checklist whenever I need to present. 


Lets get straight to it! 


  • Presented a total of 3 presentations 
  • Topic: Melanie Elturk and her significance as an entrepreneur 
  • Main topic: *slightly changed from the 3 presentations About her significance as a muslim entrepreneur 


What did I do following the three presentations 

  • Presentation was premade (reused from an old class) 
  • reviewed it only a few times before class
  • (first and second attempt) I did not bring any prop
  • Sent presentation through google classroom


Points of improvement and recommendations:


  • Use a prop(aka: hijab) 
  • engage with the audience through games and quizzes
  • Larger fonts to accommodate a poorer board 
  • Larger pictures to accommodate a poorer board 
  • Speak slowly (and surely) 
  • Be in time with timer given 
  • Speak about a specific topic especially if time allotted is only 3-5mins 
  • Practice properly and adequately before the presentation(as many times as I can, considering my workload) 


Comments from Miss: 

  • There wqs some sort of improvement from the three presentations, but I got worse in some other aspects
  • The main goal here is to practice and record yourself, since you do not realise how you present until you see yourself
  • Utilise technology and props
  • Utilise the room and everywhere else
  • A presentation does not mean automatically using a PPT


Beyond thankful for the past AEP classes recently. Its about time, and Im so grateful! Thank you so much Miss


With that being said, see you in the next reflection:)!

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...
