Term 1 Week 8 Learning log
So Mr Chua told us that our learning log will be checked soon and this lesson is all about love...or should I say Romeo&Juliet...ah the classic love story.... We were arranged into pairs according to index number and my partner is Keefe.Then Mr Chua gave us each a character trait worksheet and let us watch a part of the movie where Romeo first met Juliet.To summarize it all,Romeo entered a party hosted by his enemy, the Capulet family,without getting recognised.There he saw Juliet and spent most of the scene describing her and it goes like this,"Oh,she doth teach the torches to burn bright!
It seems she hangs upon the cheek of night
Like a rich jewel in an Ethiope's ear,
Beauty too rich for use,for earth too dear.
So shows a snowy dove trooping with crows
As yonder lady o'er her fellows shows
The measure done,I'll watch her place of stand,
And,touching hers,make blessed my rude hand.
Did my heart love till now?Forswear it,sight!
For I never saw true beauty till this night.
Huh didn't knew that Shakespeare was so romantic.So they kissed upon meeting,weird I say.
After watching the movie,we were given a piece of blank paper to draw a character traits mind map.The bell rang just after a short well.I feel that today's lesson was quite interesting as we got to watch a part of the movie and I find it very enjoyable though I find Capulet's speech a little cheesy.Well it's the 16th century,what can you expect?I dare to say that it's impossible to find someone like Romeo now of days.If there is one,I bet that girls would just find his love speech cheesy,though i would like to meet someone like him ha ha.
So that is a english saying goes,"A picture speaks a thousand words."Friday's lesson and makeup lesson is all about Religion and cheating and this guy.Yes, he's Lee Kuan Yew,one of our founding father.Mr Chua returned our "What Is Mercy?" worksheet and we go through it. Then he asked some of my class mate to give an example of God's mercy from buddhism,Christianity,Hinduism and Muslim.Apparently,Ebony's answer was freaking long....After that is done,we were given a worksheet about Romeo's love speech.As Mr Chua explains the meaning of it,we were required to fill in the blanks.Our homework was to describe about a person we love just like Romeo.When the bell ranged,we went to have lunch and prepared for the makeup lesson.During the makeup lesson,continued where we were.Then we moved down to the Movers And Shakers Gallery for our main event.Mr Chua asked us to choose a partner and I partnered Zheng Xue.We were given a worksheet with question about our founding fathers.After all of us finally finished,we sat down and Mr Chua told us about someone copying and pasting from other's learning log and Mr Chua told us not to private our blog.I feel that cheating is a wrong this to do.If everyone were to cheat their way out,the whole world,or at least Singapore,would be screwed up.Good thing that our founding fathers aren't like that.I feel that the lessons was kinda normal as we have done what normally a teacher would ask his students to do and we didn't get scolded again.I wish that our lessons would just start and end peacefully as peace and quiet is the best, and no,I'm not expecting angels to fall from the sky.
