Queens Park.

Whew! Today at Enrich we went on a long walk in the burning hot sun. Do you know were we went? To Queens Park! We were observing all the patterns we could see and pick out, we also took pictures and wrote them down on a piece of paper. We each got split up into three groups. The leaders were, Katie, Darryn and Jenni. We rotated round three places. First we went to the rose garden, then past the ducks, then the playground, then we went to the bird avery. After all that, we had lunch, yum! After we went to the museum and we went back to Enrich. Our group was first to get to Enrich so we had to wait.  My favourite pattern for the day was:  the birds feathers because they are camouflaged so that is a pattern of survivability.

Today at Enrich

"la,la,la!" Today I did music with Jenni. We learnt how to draw music notes and lines, we also sung a song called "My life would suck without you", we also played fortunately, unfortunately  where it's like a fight but it's a word game.
My buddy was Reid. I was fortunately Reid was unfortunately and unfortunately we ended up having me dead!
In the end we ended up tired of all that but that's ok because I still learnt a lot about music notes that I didn't know.

Caine's Arcade

Today at Enrich we watched a movie about a boy called Caine and how he made an arcade out of cardboard! Caine had to stay at his Dad's work over the summer holidays.  He used all the old cardboard boxes to make up an arcade.  He didn't get any customers for A LONG TIME, until one man came to buy a door handle for his car.  This man was also a movie maker.  He stayed and played at Caine's Arcade, and then he posted his movie about it on YouTube.  He organised for lots of people to come and play - Caine is really famous now.  Here is the link:  http://youtube.googleapis.com/v/faIFNkdq96U

Drama Games...

Today at Enrich I played a funny hoop game.  Here in the photo is Rhylee, Samantha and I.  The aim of the game is to get the hoops around the circle without making them touch the ground.  It was pretty hard, but my strategy was to bounce the hoop up to help move it onto the next person.  We also played musical bumps which is a drama activity. What you have to do is someone plays some music and when they want to they stop, when the music stops you had to sit down with your feet crossed. In the first round I came first. In the second round I came last. After that I played leader board chess against Samantha and I won! Lucky I won otherwise Samantha would move and take my place and I would be knocked out of 16th place!
