SWEET BLOG!
Great blog!! We enjoy it very much learning together and making our own learning..
Mr Loh, Can you plzzzzz add the pronunciation for the word groups like Synonyms (c-no-nims)? Because me & Vanessa didn't know how to pronounce Metaphors when we saw the word.
sweet! but em........ we dont understand why do you say names to represent the words??????????? but anyway SWEET!!
Thanks for the comments. Will take note on some of the points mentioned here.
I gotta say its quite fun to do quizes!
Nice Blog Mr Loh. I love it. I would love to study like this every day! Thx mr Loh.
I am using a CD Dictionary.(Oxford Advance Learner's Compass).It is so easy to use!
Mr Loh,we can use the Dictionary to check meanings for English words.It is easier then flipping pages searching for a word.It saves a lot of time.
This is so fun! Wicked Yi Jia gave us sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo much trouble.Anoter Wicked!
