Blog 3.1 - Kristine

Finally done with the 2nd term final exams. It's now the last term for this school year. This school year feels like it's going by very quickly. Only 3 months left before summer break. I can't believe I'm gonna be in 9th grade soon. Anyways, this blog contains padlet from today and last week. 

Last week, February 18, 2025, we played games during both periods. The first game we played was Wordle. After playing Wordle, we played a variation of Wordle. Wordle but x32. It took us a while to complete it since it had 32 different Wordles. If I remember correctly it almost took up the entire first period. We then played another game. I forgot what game it was though. I think it was Strands. Lastly, we played Scrabble. Lost once again. This time though, Almira and Yesa won not Selim. I guess his Scrabble luck has finally run out. We played a lot that day. Had fun though.

Today, February 25, 2025, we played Strands at the start of the class. It was about chocolate (yum). After playing Strands, Miss Disa asked us about the things we learned last term. Skimming, scanning, and other stuff. She then gave back our final exam. After that, we did a seatwork about descriptive text and bees. Guessed almost all the questions. Learned about bees though. Once we finished checking the seatwork, we played Contexto. The website wasn't loading for a while when we were really close to figuring out the word (I think it was because of the internet). Fortunately, the internet came back and the word was pigeon. Lastly, we played Waffle. We did and learned a lot again today. Pretty tiring. 

I guess that's all I have to say for now. Thanks for reading.

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...
