When I wasn't able to assent ms Jeanie for year 7s, I asked ms Telisa if i could join some of her year 12 media classes since i have frees and she was teaching them how to do a documentary. since i was working on the IB mural which was considered as a documentary. I was happy that i am able to go as it will give me a heads up on what is going to be taught in my (yr 11 media) class by ms telisa. I like to know what is coming up ahead instead of not knowing. I am happy that my friend, Thandie, is there as we meet during soccer last year. She was able to help me alot with the big words and defining them for me in a simple way as she knows how I speak. Meaning my way of understanding a topic or sentence or statement is simplified enough for me, that I can understand, like using examples of real-life situations or making one up on the spot. And also using visual examples of a text or a picture of what is needed or what it is to be explained.
When I was in there for the first time, some of the year 12s looked at me funny because they never thought a year 11 would be there since it was a year 12 class (only when they don't have enough students in a class). I knew most of the year 12s faces and names, as some (Fynn) asked me, "Why are you here?" as I replied "Because I want to and have frees." I also wanted to say since Thandie was there, but i thought twice about it. Thandie is a great friend as she helps me alot with media (topics). I would try and not to bother her to much afraid of her getting upset or (god forbid) angry, so I would try and do my work by myself and would ask Ichsan for help but realized that he didn't take media as a class, he was just there since he had frees (also). All the year 12s didn't treat me like a yr 7 they didn't treat me like an outcast or anything awful, it was just the opposite as they treated me like a year 12 even though I don't say much like the others.
I was happy that I was able to go to the year 12 media classes. When i told my parents they were happy that I was able to go and get extra classes, and especially with the older year (yr 12s) classes. I guess it was easy for me to get into the year 12 class because I have a good relationship with ms teilsa. Good relationships can give you benefits and have access more to things. As I was able to attend the year 12 media class.
Thanks again, Ms telisa
I am honored for letting me join the year 12 media classes.
