The Final Countdown

Hello, once again, ladies and gentlemen! The Minigurus return! As you can see, this will be our final post for our project and our last goodbye for the blogging community. See the connection with the title? 
 Do not cry or even feel sad fellow bloggers! We may be at our final stand to entertain and to inform you but alas! We shall prevail and entertain you and inform you as no one has ever seen before! But that time will come.
Anyhow, we are making another blog post about...BLOGS! Yes! A blog about a blog! But not just a regular blog but our blog! Let's head on! Shall we not?


We'd just like to give a short background about this post. This means.......FLASHBACK!
It was another average day at the classroom when T. Rye (the urban guru) announced that he had a "surprise" for us. Naturally, everyone got excited. But little did we know that the "surprise" he had in store was this blogging project! Didn't you ever wonder why we decided to make this blog? 
Ok, we're being rude. Please go on and enjoy our (sob) last (sob) post!

Khaim said that our fourth quarter final CEO is a blog site where we will put what happened during or after our activities in school/science class.
We prepared for it by discussing about what we will put on the blog.
We had a problem about what we will put and sometimes all of us are not able to discuss the blog. We resolved it by discussing more.
Khaim would do this CEO again because this was a fun CEO and because I want to get a perfect score.
But Khaim does not know how to improve this CEO because the CEO doesn't need any improvement.
Khaim would not change anything because it was already a good CEO.
Khaim learned that you should always be responsible about what you put in the blog and that you should always be prepared.

Also, Reisa said that the Fourth Quarter Final CEO was to make this educational blog so that we could share the different lessons we have learned in Science for everyone to see. We put different posts like a post about our field trip, etc. She said that this CEO was by groups.
Reisa prepared for it by doing her part of the posts, and revising other posts that her groupmates made by making them more creative. She also did her part on commenting and evaluating other blogs. Then, she encountered problems in the blogging project. One was the time pressure since 4 posts (all about the field trip) were due on one day. And that day was near exams. 
Another problem is that some of her groupmates did not help me in doing the blog. They did not do their part so she would have to do it sometimes. Other times, they would be late or not care at all. Since this is a group CEO, we would all get the same score, and I don't think it's fair, especially when one of us didn't cooperate. Even if, Reisa was given the chance to do this CEO again, she would do it. Even though Reisa encountered some tough problems, she had a great time reflecting on the times we had in Science. Reisa enjoyed making posts and posting reflections there. Reisa thinks this CEO can be further improved by putting longer deadlines for the posts and comments, so we can put meaningful posts and avoid cramming.  Reisa wouldn't change anything on how this CEO was handled because in the end, we would manage to complete the given requirements and tasks. She had fun too. The most important lesson that she has learned from this CEO is: to be creative. Since this is a CEO, it must be creative. She also learned to do posts early so we could all avoid cramming and publish better posts.

Next is Margot, and she said that in the 4th quarter CEO we made blogs where we put all that is happening in our science class and what we learn. Then, she had some problems like, some did not submit the blog early so they had to stay late to post and edit it but she had resolved it by contacting and communicating with each other. Margot would definitely do the CEO again because she had enjoyed it very much and she had learned the way of doing teamwork. Margot does not know how to make the CEO better as long as we all did out best, everything's okay. She'd never change anything about this CEO because it's already perfect. Margot learned that to not always depend on a groupmate or friend to do your work or else you'd get in real trouble.

Now we have Gobs! Let's hear what he has to say: Gobs said that the CEO is a project about making blogs about whatever we had done, like field trips. We prepared for it by making a profile in www.blogspot.com then, assigning people to comment, make the blogs and asking questions for each groupmate and then they reply back then we make the blog. Yes, Gobs has encountered problems like I had no schedule to do one blog because the final exams were almost near. He resolved it by my groupmates who helped me make the blog. Yes, he would do it again since he gets to use the internet most of the time. He thinks that the CEO should have longer deadlines. Also, Gobs thinks that it depends if the CEO has corrections or not. I learned that you should always focus on this particular type of CEO because it is sometimes hard to make it and you should not always depend on your groupmates to do things for you.

And next up is - oh, wait. We're already done. How time flies. But this means .... NO MORE POSTS?!
NOOOOOOOOOOOO! (sob uncontrollably)

2 days later......
A-hem. The Minigurus just wanted to say a last farewell to all you bloggers out there.
Thanks for reading our posts, guys, and we hope you leaned a lot from them. And, also, we enjoyed making these posts! We also hope you enjoyed reading them!
Even though we're gone for good, maybe we might return..... Who knows? Maybe a Walk through biodiversity part 2? 
And of course, the Minigurus couldn't have done this successful blogging project without T. Rye (the Urban Guru) ! Thanks so much Teacher for making a wonderful and fun project!
See you all next time! Hopefully.

- Minigurus
