Last day at Enrich for the year!!

I come in peace.  Today at Enrich we did everything, joking.  We celebrated with sausages at lunch!!  At the start of the day we played a wilson game called all or nothing.  After the first round we had 9 and were 3rd, on the second round we got 18 and on the third go my group had 38!!  The whole year of Enrich was awesome!!!!!!

What in the world/Chess

G'day mate, between morning tea and lunch we did our "must dos and picks" and I did a pick which was called "What in the world?"  I struggled doing some of them because I typed too many words in the google search box.  I now know that the only mammal in New Zealand is a New Zealand native bat.  And now know not to write that much in google search or else The picture or explanation won't come up!!  After this blogging I'm carrying on with my must dos and pick and I will be doing the egg drop, I think? Bye people

Wilson game

At the start of the day the class played a Wilson game outside called the hoop game.  You had to get into one hoop and then you had to jump out of it and go into the next hoop.  My group (Willie, Matt & I) struggled the first couple of times to get into the hoop but then we did!!  We jumped out and went towards the 2nd hoop when Matt just touched it we had to go back to the 1st hoop and on the second try we did it.  We came 1st.  We almost came 3rd.

Dissecting a flower

Before lunch time we did a new week of must dos and picks!!  Hooray!  I did dissecting a flower with Darryn.  First we talked about the part of a flower.  Next we got shown how to dissect a flower and then we did it ourselves.  There were some weird photos and had some weird parts of the flower.   We all had fun doing it.





This is the outside of a flower stem.

This is the inside of an anther.

Wilson game/ Affective domain

At the start of the day we all played a new Wilson game and you had 2 orange,  2 blue and 1 big ball. We were the only ones who had completed in in the week!!  We did it in 6 goes.  Now Affective domain. After chess we did our must dos and picks again and this time I did Affective Domain and we watched a small clip.  It was about what children learn and that they cold be the next generation.  The girl was only 12!!  She was a gifted kid called Adora Svitak

Must dos and picks

Finally, we did our must dos and picks!!  The first one I did was "Where's Henry?" on keynote.  We had to go into our mail and get the attachment to the keynote.  "Where's Henry?" is where is he in the world and there were words that I hadn't even heard before!  There were twelve questions and some were hard and some were quite easy.  I thought that the hardest one was clue 7.  Now after this we are carrying on with it. 

MacGyver challenge

After morning tea we did a Macgyver challenge!!  First we got into a group of three and my group was Matt S, Jacob S and I.
We got :
8 sheets of newspaper
3 meters of string
1 plastic shopping bag
1 pair of scissors 
4 paper clips &
3 meters of celetape
We started to make my idea but Matt and Jacob said "it probably won't work."  So we did Matt's idea with the newspaper and that worked. So then we put the plastic bag under the newspaper and cellotaped it together and then we are hoping to thread the string though the hoops and then we are ready to test it.
