Enrich

Hi everyone. Today was fun as usual. But somehow it was better that other times. First we started of with a game of Picadilly Circus. After that we learnt about patterns. After morning tea we did a poem called I am. It has questions like I value, I fear and other things like that. Now we are dong our blog post. 

How to play Picadilly circus, First of all every one forms into a circle and someone holds a ball. You have to pass the ball to someone but they can not be directly beside you. Once you have had all the balls you sit down. You are not allowed to talk, drop the ball or have the same ball twice. Once everyone has had the balls the last people with them put them in the middle of the circle and sit down.

Our rebus are:

often often      

 not  not

Passion time

Boo hoo. It's the last day of Enrich. My favourite thing at Enrich is passion time. I Love Passion time. Passion time is when we do what ever we're passionate about. For Passion time throughout the year I have chosen to do; painting, making things out-of clay, and making a story. When we did Passion time today my friend and I typed a story. That story is called The Mystery in Greenville. Lucy typed the chapters that were numbered uneven. So far this is what I typed:

Eyeball Dissection

  At Enrich some people went with Darryn and dissected a pigs eye. Some people went away because they thought it was gross. I didn't. I thought it was interesting exploring a pigs eye. First Darryn put the pigs eye under the dinoscope and we had a look at it. I learnt something new and that was that there is fat around eyeballs. Darryn wrapped and eyeball in a piece of glad wrap and passed it around so everyone could feel it. When Darryn cut the eye open lots of liquidy stuff called vitreous humour came swimming out. In that was a clear circle called aqueous humour. Someone picked up the bit of aqueous humuor and put it on a glue stick and made the words look bigger. None of the eyes made me fell sick. 

Week 5 at Enrich.

Yay! Today was so fun. I was late to Enrich so when I got there everybody was playing chess. After that we had to do our must do's and picks. I went with Katie and some other people and we talked about a hurricane that happened in the USA.  We used De Bono's 6 thinking hats - Benefits, Solutions, Thinking, Problems, Facts, Feelings.  Then it was lunch time. Then we had to do this typing practice thing so that we could improve our speed of typing. I did a exercise for my left hand.  I stayed the same as what I was last week.  After blogging we're going to finish of our must do's and picks and then we're going home.

My Fun Day at Enrich

This morning we didn't start off with chess instead we started off with a Wilson game. How to play: Everyone stands in a circle and five people are holding either an red beanbaggy thing a different shaped red bean baggy thing, a blue beanbaggy thing, a different shaped blue bean baggy thing and a ball. You have to get all of the things before you sit down. You have to pass the things to everyone except the people right beside you. You have to get the bean baggy things in a pattern. You can get the ball anytime. When everybody is  down then the people with the bean bag things and the ball put the thing that is in their hands in the middle of the circle and you've finished. Then we had passion time. I started finishing my painting that I started last week but I didn't like it so I threw it out and started a mozaic. I'm doing a big red and blue heart. After morning tea we did chess. I played Rhea. Nobody won because Rhea didn't want to play anymore. We had to do our must dos and picks. I did charcoal landscapes. It was so fun. After blogging we're doing must dos must dos and picks. then home.

Hi! My day at Enrich was fun. This morning we played "All or Nothing". It is a timed game and is really fun. I was in Darryn's team and got 58 points. We won. We then had passion time. I carried on with my painting that I started last week. It turned out to look like this:
 Then we had morning tea. After morning tea we did must dos and picks. There was a really fun pick that we could do. Go to this website if you want to see what it is.

Then we had lunch. After doing our blog we're going to talk about what we have to do to finish our environment project. Then it's hometime.

The smelly day at Enrich!!

Hi! Today at Enrich we worked on our environment projects. My group had to clean the alleyway. It was HORRIBLE! It stank like rotten eggs because there was actually rotten egg all over a tarpaulin. The reason we did that is because we wanted to make the alleyway nice before we painted it. We then had morning tea. We did a MacGyver challenge. It was so fun. We had to make a gadget that could pull a hammer and a chisel towards you because our feet were stuck in concrete! My groups gadget looked like a pair of chicken legs without feathers. You'd think that would be easy but to me it was hard. We had to make our chicken legs gadget out of; newspaper, four paper clips, three metres of cellotape and some string. One person out of each group would be stuck in some concrete well actually a square on the floor. They then had to use the gadget to get the chisel and the hammer. Then it'll be lunch. We will then have passion time and go home.
