Tasty drama

"Right, now make a sandwich". Well, it certainly was not a tasty sandwich, unless you like the taste of Thomas, Jacob, Clara, Tara and I in a human sandwich! After morning tea we did some spatial drama activities. One of them was called '10 Second Objects'. In your group, you had to make whatever object Nicola called out.  These were the things we had to make:
1 - A sandwich
2 - A fire
3 - A clock
4 - A breakfast

What your favourite...?

What's your favourite food? Mine is mandarin. Well today for MADE Awards, we filmed a practice  movie. I paired up with Jackson to film Neave and Natasha completing an interview. First Neave and Natasha filmed us. We each had to prepare 5-6 questions earlier. Jackson asked "What's your favourite food?" I said "Mandarins". Then, I asked Jackson the same question and he said sushi. All this was to practice using the video cameras, as well as using different camera angles like close ups and long shots. By the way, we are now doing a kids sceince documentary so I'm Professer Kyle from now until the end of term three.

Things that can put you in the pit is to be tired, angry, stressed, nervous or confused and here are ways to get out.... talk about it, go to your teacher, don't give up and ask for help. Now you know how to get out of The Pit !

Chess the final frontier

Chess can finally be called an action packed game! NOT ! It was a long chess session Darryn vs me to the death (not really, well to the death of our kings). I unleashed the Queen she actually lasted longer than I thought. 

Until da da da, Darryn's  knight took out her R.I.P your highness on the bright side I killed his Queen first. In the end I lost my kingdom was destroyed.

This was part of the advanced chess session I went to this morning.  The chess tournament is coming up - it's held in Dunedin.  Only the top 5-6 players of each Enrich day can go.

3 2 1 Action!

Stop stop cut - we're still planning our documentary people. We have the council's phone number but we need more phone numbers. Let's make this the best kids documentary ever.

 Hi its me again - our progress on our documentary is growing.  Neave, Natasha and I have planned it most of it already.  Right have to go - making a documentary. All right people 3 2 1 action!

Second last week of term...

Today at Enrich we did Talent Development. I am doing the MADE (Media and Digital Excellence) Awards with Neave and Natasha. We are going to do a Documentary! Next we played chess. I played Natasha. The game took for ever. In the end I won. We also did a perfectionism task today.  You have one minute and a sheet of paper with jumbled numbers on it.  You have to circle as many numbers as you can in 1 minute. The first time I got 15 numbers circles, but the second time I got 20/60!  We do these tasks to exercise our brains, and so that we have a go at it, and try not to panic!

The Pattern Park

Have you ever noticed all the patterns in Invercargill's Queens Park ?? Well today at Enrich we went to the park. We found about 7 patterns on the way there. But at the park my partner dropped our camera, I was annoyed because I didn't take any photos . Luckily Max and Daniel let us use their camera. 

In the end we took 79 photos, we found lots of patterns.  We found beautiful patterns, patterns with order, patterns with strength and survivability.
