Blog #2 Busra Durakoglu

 January 19, 2025!!

This year went by so fast. It's already 2025 (still get confused about writing 2025 instead of 2024), and we have to write a new blog post. It's crazy how fast one school year goes by. Anyway, let me talk about my AEP class and what we did.

December 5, 2024

We started the day with some Wordle and others, and then we did seatwork. It was not that bad; I just felt sleepy. After that, it was time for SCRABBLE. YAYY. It was really fun for me, and I played with Sayo. The crazy thing was that we won, YAYY. Then, I got a snack for winning, but we shared it with everyone. 

December 12, 2024

So we played Scrabble this time again. Started the day with some wordle or other word puzzles and then we played speedy Scrabble. My team was me, Arya, and Iskandar and we won Yay!!

January 9, 2025

Woah, it's 2025 already!! In the first period, we played word games, and then in the second period, we played Speedy Scabble. I broke my streak this time, but it's fine; I'll get it back. Haha, I'm just kidding. Congratulations to Arya and Scarlet!!

This day was by far the most fun AEP class I have done!! let me explain why. For the first period, we did some listening activity which was like usual. HERE COME THE FUN PART we read DOGOnews it was really interesting and funny what we read was about a banana getting stuck on the wall with tape for 6.2 million dollars that's crazy (if I ever get broke I will do something like that ) but the fun part was the fact when miss Disa said "banana" we had to stand up and spin around. It was almost like every second but it was a learning and interactive day.

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...
