So far this week is a easy one because some of us had finish the learning task given so they just need to wait for the next update.
We are also assigned to do a blog update for this week posting the video we recorded. We are also asked to recall some spelling word we defined and some Anglo- American Literature Icon and the past discussed figure of speech like Metonymy, Onomatopeia, Litotes, etc.

We learn about Communicative styles, their types like Casual, Formal, Frozen, Intimate, Consultative. We also learned about the Anglo- American Literature Icon Charles John Huffam Dickens an English writer and a Social critic. Charles John Huffam Dickens novel and short stories are widely read today, he died at the age of 58. I learned about the figure of speech Metonymy, a figure of speech which is the substitution of the name of an attribute or adjunct for that of thing meant. We also learned about the word Jargons that means special words or expressions that are used by a particular profession or group and are difficult for others to understand.
For me, the highlights of the discussion are the types of Communicative Styles. The learning tasks are easy to do and very understandable. We also do a spelling bee.
Our topic is about conditionals and it's types, we review what we learn and differentiate each type, we also give some examples in a sentence. For me the task are just okay ,it's easy to understand and I could see the improvement of my writing skills.
We learned a new Anglo-American Literature icon Joanne Rowling,also know as J.K Rowling and an British author who wrote Harry Potter. We also learned new word by the spelling assessment like plateau, epitome,etc. We learned an figure of speech, we discuss the figure of speech Irony. For me the highlights of the discussion is still the important, meaning and it's types of Conditionals and how to identify them in a sentence.
Slide show:
Description: Examples of Conditional Sentences with it's type the first,second,and the third conditionals.
Our topic in week 3 is about Conditionals. Conditionals help me to know what word to use if I was in the middle of the argument especially when there are debates. I also learned the types of conditionals like the Zero Conditional, First Conditional, Second Conditional, Third Conditional. We also learned about the anglo-American literature icon Edgar Allan Poe and we had a spelling quiz to test our knowledge about deep English words.
All I can say about the Learning tasks is it very helpful for me to help me improve my English knowledge, especially that this helps me to identify things/words being ask. I also learned the types of conditionals like the Zero Conditional, First Conditional, Second Conditional, Third Conditional.
Soliloquy argument:
If I only study hard, I would have been a top student at our school.
If I could be a top student at our school, I would throw a party to celebrate my success.
If I would throw a party to celebrate my success, I have to study hard for my exam tomorrow.
If I could study hard for my exam, I would have been a chance to achieve my dream to graduate and be a top student at our school.
We reviewed how modals are used in the sentences and what are other modals we can use in a sentence. All I can say about the tasks is that it is very helpful for me because it helps me to see and manage how my English life goes by this subject. I have learned a new app that helps us to make a journal about our subject English and it also develops my knowledge about using modals not just by the use of asking permission or stating a question. Well at first I have a hard time to get enter the page and sign at the page but now I know how to use it. For me, the highlight of the topic is that we are going to do an activity that involves our English journey and also manage to practice in writing in the language English.
