Talent Development and Chess

Today at Enrich my favourite part of the day has been Talent development.  Because guess what we did today......?  We finished our commercial!.  Since we have finished our commercial, we have to do passion time now.  I have chosen to do sewing for my passion time.

At Chess today I played Matt L.  I won the game because I moved my bishop into a place so wherever he moved, he would lose his Queen.  After I played Matt L, I played Luca.  I won the game by using a move I made up myself.  I call it multi-scholars.  The top six on the leader board are: Me, Matt L, Mia, Katura, Rhylee and Travis.

Mind mapping.

Today at Enrich we started of by doing something called mind mapping.  Going into this activity I didn't know what mind mapping was.  It can be about anything you want.  But for us it had to be about someone gifted. I chose J.R.R Tolkien because he has creativity, task commitment and above average ability. Mind mapping starts with one big idea and then you use the branches to break it down even more.
