Today at Enrich

Today is week 9 of Enrich. Today I did a Multiple Intelligences workshop. We learnt what logical, linguistic and lots of other intelligences mean. There are 8 different types of multiple intelegences. I am strong at Intrapersonal, because I like working on my own, because I don't like people talking and taking over my ideas. 

I also went to interactions. We talked about what the word meant  to us and then we made a mind map about human interactions that have happened in our life like  in sport, school and home.

Enrich

Today I learn't P4C which is Philosophy for children. We learnt what about getting awards and what we do when we get a reward like a sticker. None of us liked getting a sticker for a reward because they would throw it in the rubbish or flush it down the toilet. I would throw it in the rubbish. We talked about if we wanted to have a teacher that gave us broken toys or a teacher that makes us level up.

Room 7 at Enrich

Today is week 8 of Enrich. On Friday my class came to Enrich to learn how to film and make movies with imovie. First we watched some other people's movies to see what we were going to do. First we planned our movies then we went to film our movie. My partners were Nathan and my friend Mitchell. We filmed our movie out the front where the colourful couches are. Our movie was about interviewing a pro motocross rider called James Stewart. I was the news person, Mitchell was James Stewart and Nathan was James Stewart's Dad. Nathan wore a hat and sunglasses and Mitchell wore a police helmet for a MX helmet and shiny sunglasses. I wore some real glasses. We had a great time making our movie. After we finished we got to put music and sound effects on our movie. My sound effects were a motorbike revving and a racing car going by. My music sounded like country music. In the end we went back to school on the bus and talked about our fun day.

Week 7 of Enrich

Today is week 7 of an 11 week term. 
At Enrich we learn new things. Most of them are so interesting like history and P4C. My favourite part of Enrich is making new friends and the maths workshops. I liked the Fibonacci number sequences because they can create patterns on paper by following the number sequence. 
History was interesting because we were learning about space shuttles and what they did, how much they cost (over $3 billion dollars to build) and one has just been retired - the Discovery. The Discovery Space Shuttle was special because it took the Hubble Telescope into space. The Hubble telescope takes all sorts of interesting photos in space which we looked at today too. They were impressive.
