OK,so today we greeted Mr Chua as usual the we started our lesson as soon as possible.For today we had 2 lessons for literature as we had make up lessons for it.For the first lesson,Mr Chua taught us on Sonnets.He gave us a worksheet on it.There were numeral questions that were needed to fill up.We also learned about couplet and alternative rhyme scheme.And iambic,which is the way we speak using stress and unstressed.The bell rang and we got ready four our next lesson.For the second lesson,we were given a worksheet on our founding fathers,Mr Chua told us that even though we are learning literature now,our founding fathers are also important in literature.Then we went down to the Movers and Shakers gallery,to do the worksheet because the answer for the worksheet are found at the Movers and Shakers gallery.Then we were given the whole period of literature to complete the worksheet.After the bell had rang we went back to class and greeted the teachers goodbye.Then some of us went home and others went to their own cca for the day.

Term 1 week 8 (WED)

Okay.So today lesson was all about Romeo and Juliet lines.We went through Romeo lines and we also we tried to understand the meaning of every lines that Romeo had said.Most of the lines that Romeo had spoken was absolutely romantic indeed.Here are some of the lines that Romeo had said to Juliet and also pictures to describe the sentences:


'Oh,she doth teach the torches to burn bright!'
means Juliet is bright and beautiful than any other flaming torch.


'It seems she hangs upon the cheek of night
Like a rich jewel in an Ethiope's ear.
means that Juliet shine beautifully like shiny bright diamonds like up in the night sky.


'So shows a snowy dove trooping amongst crows,
As yonder lady over her fellows show'
means Juliet is compared to a dove which are beautiful while the other ladies in the Ball are compared to crows,which is ugly of course.

After filling up the blanks on the worksheet that Mr Chua had given us earlier during the lesson,he decided to give us a homework.We were needed to complete the activity on the other page of the worksheet by the next literature lesson.The class were needed to compose a description of our loved one using the format used by Romeo.That was what we were supposed to do for our homework.It was quite difficult to complete it.Mr Chua told us even though we didn't know how to do,we could at least try.So we decided to put our effort onto the worksheet.Then we greeted the teachers goodbye and we started our next lesson.

Term 1 week 7 (FRI)

First things first.Mr Chua entered our class and told us to get into our Bravo formation.Everyone move into their formation.Next,he ask us to sit according to our groups which are Romeo,Juliet,Tybalt and Lord Capulet.I sat beside Ramona.Then was all of us were settled,Mr Chua showed the class a standard mind-map made by other students from other classes. he showed us the mind-maps because we are needed to do a mind-map in pairs of course.Most of us were impressed when we first saw the mind-map made by the students.It was done beautifully.

The mind-map that me and my pair needed to do was about Juliet.We are supposed to plan about what we wanted to write on the mind-map and then decorate it on a blank piece of paper.The assignment is due on Friday which is on the 26Th February 2010.Next Mr Chua gave a letter for our parents to sign it.The letter was about out learning log marks.I got 64%.Then we got back our friendship card! Mr Chua gave out the cards that we made for our ultimate best friend from the previous lesson that we had done.He then had supplied an envelope and a stamp for each of us.Thank you Mr Chua. =)

After given out the envelopes,we are supposed to write out the address of our ultimate best friend on the front of the envelope.I didn't know who to send the envelope to,so i decided to write my little sister home address which is mine home address. Haha.We then queue up infront of the teacher's desk to collect our stamp and paste it on our envelope.Eventually,the bell rang and it was time for our recess but most of us can't go for recess yet because some of them have not yet collect their stamp.Once everyone was done pasting the stamp on the envelope,we dashed off to the canteen.Then the literature lesson ended. Signing off ;D

Term 1 week 7 (WED)

We greeted Mr Chua and sat down.Today Mr Chua had to start a new story,which is the Romeo and Juliet story.Firstly we got a piece of paper titled 'Character Analysis'.The characters that we were needed to analysis were Romeo,Juliet,Tybalt and Lord Capulet.Index number 1 to 10 is Romeo,11 to 20 is Juliet,21-30 is Tybalt and 32-42 is Lord Capulet.Mr Chua gave us the whole period of literature to watch the movie of Romeo and Juliet.But we are not supposed to just watch it,we must also understand the story.

After watching the movie for a whole 40minutes ,Mr Chua wanted ask to complete the worksheet that he had given us before the movie began.Mr Chua wanted to explain more on the story,but he did not have enough time to explain because the bell was going to ring soon.So he quickly give a short explanation on the story and he also told us to complete the worksheet by this coming Friday which is the day of our next literature lesson.He had also reminded us and our literature rep to collect the worksheets that we had done during the holidays.Then we greeted Mr Chua goodbye and we got ready for our next lesson.

Term 1 week 6 (FRI)

Today was as usual,we greeted Mr Chua and we started lesson as soon as possible.We started the lesson with a few worksheets that were given by Mr Chua.The worksheet are about the scene of Shylock and Antonio.Most of the question we needed to answer was about why Shylock had to cut a Pound of flesh from Antonio.The ques are mostly in comprehension styles.There was a written scene on top of the first question.We had to understand the written scene in order to answer the question that were given.That written scene also gave us clue on how to answer the question,which is quite easy but difficult to evaluate it on the paper. Haha.

Most of us didn't know what to do or how to answer the question.We also went through the question one by one.Then the bell rang.How sad.We could not finish the worksheet on time during our literature lesson,so Mr Chua suggest the class to do it on our own.Unfortunately,the lesson ended because Cher lane came to our class to inform us that it was time to proceed to the hall for our Chines New Year celebration.Without hesitation,Mr Chua asked the class to lined up outside the class.P/S I could not remember much of what had happened for today,sorry if the post is quite short.Hope you guys will understand! ;D Signing off.

Term 1 week 6 (WED)

We greeted Mr Chua and we started lesson as soon as possible as always. ;D. Mr Chua had decided on showing us the blog results before we started our lesson.Mr Chua had told us that if our results were below 60,there are needed to stay back after school.Those who were needed to stay back after school,Mr Chua wanted to help them in improving and also he wanted to give some tips on the literature blog.After the whole process of scolding,Mr Chua had decided on giving us some worksheets to be done in the class.The worksheets were mostly about the scene of Merchant of Venice.The worksheet contain a numeral of question about the line that says about Shylock having a pound of flesh from Antonio.We were given 10minutes to complete the worksheet.Most of the student in the class started to think of an answer right away because they fear that their names might be called out by Mr Chua with his 'Bottle of Happiness'.

I had also completed the worksheet even before 10minutes,amazing. Hahas. The questions are quite simple and understandable.Well some of them didn't really quite understand the line and begin on dozing off.Then Mr Chua started using his 'Bottle of happiness' and plopped come out a stick with a name.I didn't really quite remember who was the one that had been called out.So i am sorry.Once that was done,all of a sudden the bell rang,theres was not much time for Mr Chua to explain all the answers.So he decided to make it as a homework for those who have not done the worksheet yet.Today lesson shows me that i can understand stories well and i could manage to answers numeral questions referring to the story easily.Mr Chua started packing his stuffs,then we greeted Mr Chua goodbye and we got ready for our next lesson.Signing off :D

Term 1 week 5 (WED)

Our routine was as per normal,we greeted Mr Chua and started our lesson as soon as possible.

Since this year,our country will be holding the first Youth Olympic Games,And one of the values is Friendship.We were needed to learn about it.I believe that eventhough others are not the same race as us doesn't mean that they cannot be our friends.If you have a good friend then be good to each other and not treat each other like a stranger which you do not know at all.So Mr Chua focus for today was Friendship and what makes your best friend the ultimate best friend.But before he started his lesson on Friendship,each religion was needed to gave their reasons on why they think their god is merciful.After all the reasons were spoken out,we learn about Friendship.Mr Chua refers friendship to the script of Macbeth,as Antonia sacrifice his life Bassanio.We were given 2 minutes to write about 'Who is your best friend?' and 'Why?'.
The first person to be chosen was Salim followed by Farhan,Sarah,Johanna and then last but not least was Sabrina.This are some of the reasons that those 5 people gave.They lend a hand,known for a long time,doesn't betray me,kind and loyal.
We were given an assignment for today.Our assignment for today is to Create a card for your ultimate best friend and design our card nicely so that it could surprise out best friend with a presentable looking card ;D.The assignment was due on the next lesson,which is next week because of the 10th anniversary concert on thursday,the lesson on Friday was canceled.So we had only one lesson for this week.
