Adapting To The New Normal
by Edley Stan Cheng (Grade 7) Learning last year was pretty “normal” and learning was pretty easy. We had a lot of “normal” activities and they were fun! I loved the way we learned last time. It was pretty effective and had a little problem. Our activities back then were effective in letting us learn more. I loved the way we learned last time and it was good. Learning now takes a lot of adaptations. Right now, I had to learn to use Zoom, to annotate, and to join the meetings and breakout rooms. In Google classroom, I had to learn to use and check classwork and turn them in. The newest thing I learned was Nearpod because it was very unique compared to Google classroom. Quizziz was the most fun because it was a very fun game and took very fast to learn. In spite of these challenges, I learned to adapt to new circumstances. I want to have more mild changes like this so that I can learn to adapt a lot and in case there is a big change, then I can adapt faster. These challenges help us a lot to show that the world does not always work in the way that we want. We should always be ready for these kinds of changes so that we will be ready for big changes. Hence, we must enjoy our time without changes but always be ready for changes.
The New Normal
On August 3, 2020, She sat down in front of her computer waiting patiently for the teacher to admit her to the online zoom for the first day of class. During the wait, she felt anxious and nervous for she had thought it would be a disastrous day.
Learning Virtually
Learning over the past years was so embracing to our minds as if we learned physically ever since kindergarten. We have explored so much more by the use of libraries, laboratories, Com Lab, and more. By the use of these platforms, we could really observe, reflect, and feel the topic more because we could really see it physically. During group works, mates could easily communicate and enlighten each other in this way we could pass things in advance. Learning over the past years was so convenient, enhancing, and intuitive.
My Academic Journey With The Pandemic COVID-19
by Juliana Kristen Ngo (Grade 7) “How has the use of Zoom, Breakout Rooms, Nearpod, Quizizz, and other apps changed the way we/I learn?” Well… it has affected my learning process greatly in terms of time management, interest, and responsibility, and many more. It made me more active during recitation as well as being more confident in terms of giving and answering questions too. And with experiencing new ways of learning, I learned and discovered some valuable values that we need to embody during this pandemic/online learning. For me, the values that one must embody during this pandemic is patience. Because I discovered in our time in isolation, that we don’t know how long these lockdowns will last, for that this is the time all of us has a great chance to sit back and learn how time is the one constant during this pandemic. That no matter how grim everything seems right now, there is light at the end of the tunnel, and it will only come with time. For me this is a test of patience, this will teach us to plan better and bounce back stronger than ever. Next is resilience, this pandemic has affected our livelihoods as well as our life in every way. During this time, the virus has brought out a trait that is one of the most important qualities for individuals and communities – RESILIENCE. It feels as if we can get through this, we can get through any road that lies ahead. “How has the use of Zoom, Breakout Rooms, Nearpod, Quizizz, and other apps changed the way we/I learn?” Well… it has affected my learning process greatly in terms of time management, interest, and responsibility, and many more.

That all of us are a part of something larger than yourselves. We will not let a global pandemic stop any of us from becoming who we want to be in the future. That we need to give everything that you can, never give up, stay positive, strong, healthy, and resilient! Jamboard of the ‘I see, I think, I wonder’ activity in Mr. Agunat’s Asian History Class.
