Core classes in English Literacy, Khmer Literacy, Math, and Science.
In Math class, we used Khan Academy to further our math experience. We used to learn a lot about statistics, probability, and algebra. One of my favourite algebra formulas is the quadratic formula (ax^2 + bx + c). Now we are focusing on geometry. Right now, I am using Khan Academy to practice a lesson in part of geometry called Transformation.
In Khmer class, we focused on writing. We learned about how to write an informal speech, debate speech and other speeches. We researched about Pchum Ben, which is one of our countries ceremonies, we then put it into a book/report (in Khmer language). We also just finished researching the definition of the word “Research”. In the near future, we are going to learn more about researching.
One of the main topics that we were focusing on in Literacy class is Coming of Age. Students were able to write something about themselves in approximately 7 weeks. It was hard on what to choose, but I decided to write about my family. In this lesson, I got to write about what I felt and read some of my friends’ stories. It was truly inspiring and I found out that everyone has a unique story. This essay is kind of personal to me, and I hope you won’t criticise this. Please click here to read my first draft.
