Term 2 Week 4 Learning Log

(Monday)

Miss Marly and Mr Chua came into our class. Mr Chua returned out test results and we had a brief go-through of the test paper. Then he told us about our results for our Learning Log and daily assignments. After that, he left the class. Miss Marly took over the class and told us to push all of our tables and chairs all the way to the side and stand in the middle of the classroom with all the students evenly spaced out. After we had arranged ourselves, Miss Marly told us to close our eyes and imagine ourselves walking.

She then wanted to question ourselves on how we were walking when we had different emotions, And then, she taught us how to walk with heavy footsteps and light footsteps. Plus, we had to walk around in the space with speed ranging from speed 1 to speed 10. After that activity, we were told to form a big circle and then form groups of three each with a different race of student. Miss Marly then distributed a piece of paper which contained information on the activity we did that day. Miss Marly then went through it and told us that the play we are doing to do would be graded for our CA marks. Before the bell rang she told us to hand in our March holiday assignment, the love brochure.

(Friday)

Miss Marly came in and carried on with our acting lessons, She then called upon the even numbers to come up and stand in the space which was our 'stage' and told us to walk with the speed of 1 and the speed of 10 while trying not to bump into each other. Then it was the odd numbers turn. This time they had to walk around in the space using light ans heavy steps. after that we had some volunteers like Wei Xiang. Actually, he was not volunteering, Miss Marly called him to act how he walked to school in the morning and things like that. Then Miss Marly thanked Wei Xiang and wrote something on the white board, she wrote, "Child, Gangster, Grandmother" We were all very puzzled on what on what did she mean by that. Miss Marly then explained that we had to choose a character and had to act out the way they are walking. We had to change our character every time Miss Marly told us to, after that interesting activity, before the bell rang, Miss Marly then told us to arrange our tables back to normal and breifed us on the worksheet she gave us last week. the bell then rang and it was time for the next lesson.
