AEP Reflection #3.2 “March chronicles”

 Welcome back to anothah reflection! Alright, the more exclamation points I add.. the larger my misery is. Everyone, this is the specialty of March. Oh hoho.. 


This time in AEP we welcomed a new topic! Now, we are focusing on speech writing. Growing up, the process of speech writing always found its way to my heart. Little by little it ended up being such a great part of my life until this day. Im referring it to so many ways; whether it would be through negotiating for grades, schoolwork, groupwork, team-building activities and debate. 


However, the more and more I practice speech. I realised how I slowly forgot how its like to write a proper speech; considering impromptu speeches were something that came naturally. Its not a skill for someone to brag about, especially if it is something that has been in the making ever since primary school. In fact, I believe its too long for what I have; almost embarrassing. Sometimes, I would question: “Why on earth am I not like my other friends.. who are going to all these fancy speaker places and travelling the world?!”. Comparison is definitely the thief of joy.. but I really can’t help but think about how we started in the same level then now I feel like I am left behind. 


So the fact that we are learning about speech writing, not only reminds me to take a step back.. but for me to remember how important it is to fix your skills before you crumble!


Its ironic, the video is quite old but I also watched the same preachy speech many years back. Its funny how this moment feels like a full circle. Aside from our emoji activity, we haven’t done actual writing yet. So Im looking forward to that in the coming days:)


See you in the next one!

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...
