Hello! Today's blog is kinda a new approach because I will be looking back about what I've learned and felt during the past AEP lessons. Honestly, I kinda thought I would forget what I've learned as time goes by but when looking back, I've realised that we actually have done a lot of things. If you've read my AEP blog entries, I have specify the topics that we have covered so far. Here, I'll be giving my honest opinions on the activities that we have done.
Speech 🎤
*Insert me crying in a corner*
Before I completely talk bad about how my speech went, it was quite an experience. I felt the anxiety and nervous feeling again as you would feel when doing a presentation infront of everyone. I've never really like presenting;nevertheless doing a speech. I hate the nervous feeling and the ecstasy in the stomach. We had to talk about issues facing the young people;we had chose our own topics. Mine was about social media. Preparing the speech was one thing but presenting and talking itself is another thing. When I feel nervous, I usually stutter and pronounce a word badly. I don't really know how to cope with that but I try each time to calm myself and to overcome the nervous feeling. I really do try. I never knew 3 minutes would be so long before. I had a script and I've practiced a lot to the point that I have remember the script, but again the nervous feeling make me forget stuff to mention during the speech. I remember we determined the order by taking a Scrabble letter and see which letter comes first and which comes last. If I remember correctly, I had the the letter S;therefore, I was the last one who presented. Well the experience was quite normal to be honest. Everyone was supportive and considerate which eased my tension a bit. I wasn't as nervous as I thought. I still did stutter though. The speech went on smoothly. Everyone did a great job in my opinion. It wasn't the best but it was a nice change of activity. I really don't want another speech though, pleaseeeeeee. Overall, it wasn't a bad experience but I really don't want to do another speech. Mainly because of the anxiety and nervous feeling.
Blogs 💻✍️
As mentioned earlier, this is my second blog so far. I feel that blogging is actually a nice little activity to do every now and then to recap what we have learned and felt during AEP classes. I was introduced to blogging from last year and only good memories come out of it. It's a nice and chill writing activity to do with some complementary classical music in the background. It definitely helps me in creating a sentence and writing more in general. I just love music you know. I work better with it. I don't have any problems with this activity and would love to continue doing it in future lessons.
Miro Board💻
Gosh this is my favourite part of the class. Ms Disa would be mad if I say so because it is a game but it's not any game, it is a WORD game. Mhm you read it right. It's a word game. What makes it special? Well just the game is really fun because there is just so much kinds of wordle today;however, the real reason I like wordle is because it's an activity where all of us work together. It's different than Miro because we are working together but we're doing it online and not talking as much as we would during the very first part of our AEP class. Sometimes there are struggles and sometimes there are giggles. Every lesson comes a new word game. It never bores me. Different types of wordle has different types of challenges, but if we're working together, nothing is impossible. As the saying goes, two heads are better than one. Moreover, six heads are better than one. Make it seven heads including ms Disa. In summary, I like this starter activity. It never fails to start my brain and get it going for the next two hours.
