Literarily Fun and Creative in English Class!

On November 26 to 28, 2019, The Junior High School (JHS) English Area held its Area Cocurricular Activity with the theme “Engaging and Shaping the Mind through Language and Literature.”

The three-day activity exposed the students to different avenues that enhanced students’ reading, critical thinking, creative writing, and speaking skills. Grades 7 to 10 students immersed themselves in reading and appreciating classical and contemporary literature, from Philippine Literature, Afro-Asian Literature, English-American Literature, to World Literature. The students showcased their speaking, writing, and critical thinking prowess through writing a Mobile Poetry for Grade 7, presenting a Visual Story Telling for Grade 8, performing a Read. Pose. Flash. act for Grade 9, and showcasing language and literature Minute to Win It Games for Grade 10.

The Literary and Language Exhibit, an interactive display of students’ projects and extra mile outputs has also been put up to feature the best works of the JHS students at the Education Resource Center. The students can browse the pages of the projects to get a glimpse of the home reading books and different genres of literature, flip the panels of the vocabulary displays to learn SAT vocabulary words, and spin hanging mobiles to read poetry in a flash.

It was a delight to see the students enjoy the use of the English language in different avenues!
