Today at Enrich

Today at Enrich


Today at enrich we had a technology challenge we had to make something that stands by its self that you could shoot a shuttlecock out of it but only with one hand, we will judge at the end of the day we also had someone come in and tell us about the Waihopai river and how it is so dirty and muddy. Then we started to talk about seawood bush and pets there and Darryn came out with some ferret, rat and stoat fur.  It was really cool and I enjoyed it.

Today at Enrich we played the Wilson hoop game, then I chose to do panting with Katie. We had to paint a river some tree shadows and lily pads, it was an impressionist painting like Claude Monet. I will be doing this again next week as well so watch this space! We also started our new concept curriculum about environment and we are still doing the tuning in and finding out what we know about environment.

Today at enrich I did a term 2 reflection about all of the things we have worked on over the term.  We played a Wilson game this morning.  What you had to do is hold hands with two other people and you weren't allowed separate your feet when you jump together, otherwise you had to go back to the start, otherwise you had to go back to the start!

Today at enrich I tried really hard to smash the top 6 people on chess  the leader board but it didn't work out the way I planned. Maybe next year??

I also went to a workshop on affective with Darryn where we learnt what Francois Gagne thinks it means to be gifted and I learnt you are born gifted and you can,t go round saying I am awesome because I am  gifted. But if you have done something BIG it mite be ok.

Today at Enrich

Today at lunch time I did cup stacking.  Last week my fastest time was 6:75seconds, and this week I got it down to 5:75seconds! I was doing the 3-6-3.  


Also today we went to the museum to see the Wearable Arts.  One of them was a knight that had a really cool sword, and another was a lady whose dress was made out of copper radiator fronts!  It looked like it would be really sore to wear.  When we went in the tent that was there, my shoes were glowing! The white things were glowing because there was a UV light in the tent.  I loved the glowing tent!  Even the wearable arts in the tent were glowing!

Josh,

It was so great today to see you persist at Speed Stacks.  The look on your face as your time got steadily quicker was priceless! It is tricky trying to get used to using both hands, and not to fumble, but you kept trying until you succeeded.  Keep it up!
