Chess and passion time

Hi.  Today at Enrich we started off with the roll and admin.  3hours and 40minutes later.......    Now I am playing Chess against Bruno.  Check I call out.  2 minutes later....   Checkmate Bruno I call.  The top six on the leaderboard now are:  Darryn, Me, Bruno, Matt L,  Lucy and Joey.


During Passion time I worked on my sewing.  I am working on a T'shirt for the summer.  I got measured and next week I will be able to start making my shirt and it will be done by the end of the year or will it..........

Art and Chess

Today at Enrich we started off with Chess.  I played Ali.  The game took about 10-15 minutes.  I ended up winning but the first part of the game was very close. The top six on the leader board are:  Darryn,  Bruno,  Me,  Matt L,  Lucy and Joey.

During art today we were working on a style of art called abstract art.  It was a type of art when you have masking tape and paint.  First you put down the masking tape down in a pattern of your choice.  Second you paint in the gaps with different colors.  Last you carefully pull of the tape and it should look really cool.

Sewing and Chess.

At Enrich today we started off with Chess.  I played Matt L.  I won the first game and then we didn't have enough time to finish our second game.  The top six on the Chess leader board are: Bruno, Me, Matt L, Lucy, Rhylee and Mia.

During talent development and passion time I was doing sewing.  I finished an apple and have nearly finished my fish that I am working on.  The hardest part with my sewing is threading the needle, which I seem to have to do every single time!

Sewing and Chess

This week at Enrich we started off with Chess.  I played Norton.  She took out my Queen and Rook but then I came back to win with a Rook and two Queens.  The top six on the Chess leaderboard are: Bruno, Me, Matt L, Lucy, Mia and Katura.

During Talent Development/Passion time I was doing sewing.  Today, I had Sharleen come in to help me with me sewing. I learnt all the basics and I made two pin cushions out of bright red fabric.  I made the two pin cushions because I didn't have one and Enrich didn't have one.

Technology challenge

Today at Enrich we did a technology challenge.  The idea of this technology challenge was to make a structure to be able to fit three people inside without it collapsing.  In my team we had me, Bruno, Matt L and Travis.  Our group ended up winning by 1 point over Ali, Rhea and Emily.  The structure we made was a teepee like thing.  We managed to fit two people inside, but it was a bit of a squeeze!

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.
