Absence- Meral- AEP 11- Blog 3.2


Honestly, I'm unsure what to write for this blog since I was absent two-thirds of the time- either due to mocks or falling sick. This third term has definitely had a messy beginning for me, with everything clumped together- school, musicals, and AS levels fast approaching. I fear it will only get busier from here, now that midterms are over and we're onto the last stretch of chaos.

For AEP, though, we started a new unit focused on Environmental Science, which explores nature and how humans interact with it. I find this topic particularly relevant since it directly affects our daily lives and provides a clearer picture of the climate crisis we're facing today.

One Wednesday, on February 26th, we kicked off class with a friendly round of Waffle, which we successfully completed! Miss Disa then grouped us into three's with my group consisting of Naboni, Shasmeen and I. We were handed out paper cutouts of collocations to mix and match. After a few mishaps- papers flying due to laughter (or coughing fits)- my group managed to nearly complete the long list of matches.

There were three categories: global warming, the environment, and nature, which served as helpful hints. Some phrases were tricky since they could fit in multiple ways, making the exercise both a challenge and a great mental workout. Despite that, I enjoyed the activity as it was an engaging way to learn about these different vocabularies. 

That's all for this blog. As always, thank you for reading this and I'm hoping to see you in the next one!

Signing off,
Meral

Blog 3.3 Almira

 I haven’t written a blog for quite a long time, and I also haven’t attended aep class for 3 weeks because I went to vacation in Boracay and there was the Musicals and the most recent one was the Holy week, to be honest I dont really remember what we did for aep for the past few weeks I was in class and as long as I can remember we did scrabble and did our seatwork. I dont know what to write about since I dont have anything to talk about the class since I was absent for quite a long time, anyways for the past few weeks I was  absent from aep class I did some cool activities and visited two different islands.  Roughly two weeks ago, I went to Boracay for vacation since it was Eid so we decided to go there for a week I had so much fun there and I really enjoyed it because I went snorkelling and did some other water sports activities. Now the second time I was absent for aep was because of the musicals, it was techinacally a holiday but I think I kinda enjoyed it unfortunate...

3.2

Helloooo!!! How is everyone?? Yup, I am late again, like always — and this time, I really am not sure what to write, as I am constantly getting demolished every day with Cambridge. If you were wondering where I was all this time… well, I was just doing past papers!! OKAY — so this blog was due weeks ago, and the reason I missed it (it’s not procrastination this time!!) is that I was absent during the last two weeks of classes that semester. For one of them, we had our stats mock for Cambridge, which I wonderfully failed, and for the next absence… I don't even remember what happened to me. Maybe I was just dead doing all the past papers. Sorry, Miss Disa — I began procrastinating midway!! Well, I’m going to finish this now. This semester, we started doing lessons on environmental words. It was a pretty easy chapter and fun lessons! Too bad I missed most of them. Anyway, on the first day, Miss Disa gave us some random cut-out words that go together. Me, Meral, and Sashmeen were in ...

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...
