Learning log #12 >actual performance<
Before the performance, I went home to take some props for the event. When i arrived in school, i quickly changed into my clothes. Then rehearse for awhile. Once fully rehearsed, my group and I proceeded to the AVA room for the performance. As I am playing as tybalt, I started off quite hesitant. At first i was nervous, but as i continued with my script, i managed to gain more confidence speaking during the play. Overall, i think my group did quite well, as long as we had done the very best.
Learning log #11 >preparation for performance<
Three weeks before the actual performance day, my group went to mayo st, which is located near arab street, to rent romeo and juliet's costume. We also bought other stuffs such as masks and gloves. During sept hols, we rehearse once at chun hwee's house. We also discuss about what are we gonna actually wear for the performance.
Learning Log #10
Last week, we only have 1 lesson because on Tuesday it is school holiday due to Teachers Day! So I took that opportunity to practice on my acting skills.
On our second lesson, we were told to do our third essay for Term 3 which is about Setting. We were given about 40 minutes to complete the task given by Mr Chua. Luckily, it was an open book test which allows me to refer to my notes which makes my task easier. I tried my best to complete it but still did not manage to finish it on time. So, that was our last Literature lesson for term three. Yeah, finally once again we have our break for a week. Wohoo!!! Within this week, I should revise, relax and refresh my memory.

Learning Log #9
On the first lesson, I received my paper which is the common test paper. I got 12 marks, which I had improved than the previous one. Mr Chua said that we can get higher marks if we can argue well for those marks referring to our own scripts and the booklet that he gave to us.
On the second lesson, I learnt about Setting which is one of the topics for Literature. There are four aspects of setting. They are place, time physical environment and social environment. We were given lecture notes on Setting during my teacher's powerpoint presentation. Last but not least, we were given a sheet of paper indicating our performance’s date and time. My literature performance will be on the following week.Finally I want to wish all teachers a happy Teachers Day!!! xD

Learning Log #8
On the first lesson, we did not learn anything as we were told to rehearse on our play. As this is our first time rehearsing, we acted with the help of the script. The director, Yi Cong, took down some notes of our performance. Then, he briefs us on our acting skills. Most of us did not project out our voice. That is why our performance not that good. But I am sure there is room for improvement.
On the second lesson, Mr Chua instructed us to do an essay. The title is “How does irony in 'Singapore River' help us to understand its theme?” I tried my best to answer the question by writing an essay. I did not understand what the question wants but when I flip through the notes I found that the essay is quite easy. After the test, I heaved a sigh of relief and hoping to get at least a pass.

Learning Log #7
During both lessons, we only could do our own work instead of having normal lessons like the previous week. I read through my literature worksheets in my file to prepare for next week's literature test.But on Friday, Mr Chua reminded us that there is a test next week and I felt very nervous. But the great thing is that we were given the passage first, and hence I can spent the weekend to understand the passage fully so that I am well- prepared and will strive for the best. Being able to know what passage will be tested also helps me to think of what questions will be coming up and this helps me to better prepare for the test.
Mr Chua also give us a model essay for unseen question 1 and we learnt that we are not suppose to copy down the points into the essay as this makes the whole thing looks so artificial.

Learning Log #6
At last, after a few days of break, our class was back to normal after the previous week. I was feeling happy after the situation was over.
On the first lesson, our class were scolded by Mr Chua because of some people in the class copied each others work and showing no integrity in doing their homework. Although I was not involved in that situation, our class had to resit for other test.
On the second lesson, we learnt about a poem of Singapore River. The poem is filled with some metaphors which describes it. We also learnt that metaphor are words which are comparison of one thing to another stating one thing is the other.
