Monitor's Message

Our dear monitor, Farhan, had told me to warn you on the latest update of tortures of 2D.

Maths test on Thursday. To embrace the Storm you are needed to read up Chapter 1 of your Maths Survival Book 2. A device that counts digitally would help.

Literature Homework. you are needed to send a video or presentation of a poem to the high priestess, Ms Koh, to calm the great spirit of Literature.

AEP Assault. Those who haven't offer the great spirit of AEP would be deducted 10 HP for every day.

English Compre. To understand the disaster coming up, you are needed to fill a comprehension to pg 14.

DRAMA RAMA! Just check this out!

Dear boys,

VS DramaFest will be held on 18th Apr(Fri) at the Jubilee Hall.
It is a cultural tradition since time immemorial and one that showcases
some of the brightest drama stars in VS.

We are now currently in the process of gathering and selecting
scripts from students.

IF you can't sing, paint or play an instrument, showcase your talents in writing. We are expecting the budding writers to give it a go! Before you know, your master pieces are being staged at Jubilee Hall! Bear in mind, a script writer is different from a director, you may not even be involved in acting. Just write and allow your imagination to go wild!

As each EL class is expected to submit ONE script by 31/1 (Thur). If you truly want me to submit yours for the DRAMA Committee, I hope you can write a short synopsis of the story as precursor for the ease of reading.

****Some guidelines for you****

- Duration of play (10-15min)
- Synopsis (What is it about? Characters? Where is the setting/place?)
- Structure of a Play (Beginning/Middle/End)
- Genre/themes eg, comedy, spoof, musical, school, internet, crime etc


Though this is optional a task, I still hope to see those createive juices put to work. Hope to see them scripts coming in soon by end of next week.


To our future...millers, grishams, minfongs....even Shakepeare!

Oh behalf of Mr Tan,
Thanks!

Camp FEAST Update

This is important, all NCC Land cadets must read this. The rest of you can just ignore this post. Maybe we should create a NCC Land blog, its about time we did that...

Ok, anyway this message from Staff JC. Read and tell any other NCC Land friends you have that don't know to read this. Regarding tomorrow Camp FEAST so must read, if you haven't already recieved an SMS from Staff:

We will be going directly to Amoy Quee Camp ourselves. It makes no sense going to school at 6:00am plus and leaving before 7:00am. Link up with your peers to share a cab if your parents are not fetching you to Amoy Quee CAmp. Be at the Camp at 7:30am. This is from Staff, pass the message.

PS: From me - I think it'll always be better to arrive at the Camp a bit earlier. You know, the CLTs and stuff.

NCC Camp FEAST

Just a quick notice to everyone who will be wondering "Where the hell doofuses gone to?", NCC Land have a camp at Amoy Quee Camp on Monday and Tuesday, so we all get to pon school, so lucky... I mean so unlucky. Yess...

Anyway, this is for Tze Yang and Clive, both pon NCC for the dafty projects: You are lucky you're not screwed by Staff, so lets get to the point. Monday might have or not have bus to fetch us to the camp directly from school, so check your phone regularly. Monday wear Full SMART No.4 with Beret. If there is no bus to the camp, you are to go there by yourself, reach there by 7:30AM.

Once you're there, go all the way to block 246 or something, if lost ask the guards. Reminder: No camera phones inside the camp so don't bring. Staff is also giving out Mr. Minjun-or-whatever-you-spell-his-name-as' HP number for you to call if you get lost, which is a bit of a problem since you don't have your phone with you... ok gotta make this quick so I'll rush through the rest. Over there walk briskly and smartly or the CLTs will scream da shit outta you.

Just to let you know, we will be split with the other platoons from other schools. They WILL 'inspect' your uniform when you come in, and wear your beret when inside the camp past the main gate must wear liao. Or else the CLTs will kill you. Emphasis on KILL. Oh yes, bring your jockey cap, the other set of uniform apart from the one you wearing there, 2 sets of pratically everything wearable lar. AND BRING YOUR SHOES - Part D last time got one person never bring end up wearing boots with PE haha.

Any other stuff call me.

Random Post - ATTENTION

My Dearest Victorians,

I truly understand that money is precious as we earn 200 000 000 goondoos ($0.20) every year. We earn this small amount by doing at least a few million tao-poks and throwing rubber ducks into the Pacific Ocean. I understand that you have excellent uranium-eating priests that teach you the ways of Foogamohalogy. It is heart-warming that you have Mao Zedong descendants that spread Nosetrilism through the republic.

With my pancakes and wooden nosehair, I plead you spoilt kids to help contribute frog earwax seasoned with plutonium and Beethoven’s hair.

Yours fakely,

Change

Our educator, Ms Neo, appointed me to carry out health inspection of your blog. I am so priviledged to do appointed! (Sniff!) These are the main thing I would be inspecting along your little blogs:

->Use of Language. No 'fishes', 'female dog offspring', 'bus service 3'...

->The font size and colour scheme. Suitable of the two light detectors located on the top of your cheeks.

->Availability to comment. Very important for you to get 50% of your CA1 EL.

->Obscence stuff. No red coloured liquid and stuff with it. I hate this objective who are we to say?

->Adult stuff. OK, this is damn obvious rite?

Here are the blog not suitable to these criteria:
Fareez - Comment plz!

Hanmo - Larger fonts plz. Beautiful blog except the bloodshot eyes have to go for now.

Ian Yang - COMMENT!!! Nice though.

Jiefu - Larger fonts. U like locking our eyes.

Others get a better color scheme via Layout and then Fonts and Colour. Don't think I never say you never do. I am not going to tell you that your diapers is full of crap before it explodes.

Guide for Noobs:
- Get cbox via Cbox
- Music at Imeem or Esnips.
-Mail me at mohdizak07@hotmail.com for guides and requests.

CA 1 Assignment

Dear boys of 2D

This blogging adventure should be taking off by now. I hope to see real engagement with writing and more conscientious effort in using proper grammatical sentences, punctuation and spellings which are acceptable in this perfect English blog. Any language teacher can identify with me that it is a joy to see you learn and improve your expressions. Through the process of reading others' blog and writing comments, you will learn to be more critical a reader and writer. Knowing that you are publishing for a specific audience, you would be spending some time editing before publishing a piece of work, with pride.

Well, ironically, I have to emphasize that although this adventure will ultimately faciliate your language learning experience, I will be using it to assess your mastery of this genre - BLOG - as well as your linguistics spontaneity. Also, let me remind all that this CA assignment is primarily a NARRATIVE and not a random, mindless rattling of your personal emotions ( although Blog does have this element).

Hence, in your attempt to be spontaneous, please remember to align your story to :

1 Vivid characters and settings
2 Engaging plot; with a genuine(or realistic) complication
3 Sequential rising actions which lead appropriately to a climax
4 Well thought-through resolution (complimentary to the introduction)

Have said that, as you read others' narrative entry, do use these elements as a guide to make your comments on your friend's blog ( comment on the register no after you, eg, Reg 18 will post a comment on Reg 19).

FInally, please complete all the 3 entries latest by Sunday! INDICATE tasks clearly (CA 1 ENTRY 1 2 or 3 with its respective theme; eg. CA 1 Blog 1 - A moment I enjoyed). By 21st Jan, I will comment and give a score to each. This CA task.

Keep your posts coming. I welcome your feedback in my teaching and facilitation in your learning journey of the English Language.

Ms Neo

Welcome to Class Blog

Hello, fellow classmates. Welcome to the class blog of 2D (Officially). Nothing much to say but have fun in creating your blogs.

I am not going to type the same thing Mr Ron Tan typed on his class blog. Just enjoy yourselves and do keep your blogs after the assignment.

Don't forget to type in proper English, not forgetting your punctuations and spellings. Yeah, it is like writing or more specific typing an essay.

Have fun and the things along with it.
