Bouncy Ball.

Awesome day at Enrich firstly we did some presentations for the Affective Studies I think Norton's one was the best of the morning. She did hers on Steve Irwin, and she had loads of information, and I found it really interesting.  For Passion Time, Katie and I did this really awesome Stykz animation.  It's not quite finished yet, but it's about a man named Bruce and a very bouncy ball that gets away from him because he bounces it too hard, and it flies up and hits his hand and runs away from him!  I will post it on my blog next week when it is finished.

STYKZ

What an awesome day at Enrich today I've had.  I think my affective study on my gifted person is finished.  Yeah!!! For talent development I worked on my Stykz animation.  I have got two people free falling and another one parachuting.  I have learnt how to create an animation on stykz.  It looks great as it is my first animation.  

Animations

At Enrich we did passion time. I know that you are thinking that I am going to type that I did the tiger lino print,  but No! Instead of the tiger lino print,  I did some animations on Stykz,  I did one about parachuting and one of free falling. I loved doing the animations.


That is all for this week see you next week!

Albert Einstein had speech problems...

Today at Enrich we played chess and I played against Matt S and I won! So I moved up about ten spaces on the leaderboard so now I am sitting in 17th place out of 26.  I spent some time working on my affective study. I found out that he had speech problems.  He would say something, and then he would pause to consider what to say next, so he paused a lot.  We just finished passion time, and I'm still working on my tiger lino print.  I cut out my tigers head, so on my prints it will stay gold.  The background is going to be black.  I've decided that once I'm finished with my lino print, I won't do clay, I'm going to make a lego or a clay animation.  I know how to do animations, because I did a little bit on it last year.

Tiger

At Enrich for talent development I continued with my tiger lino prints.  I printed 5 onto paper and they look awesome.  My next step is cutting out the tiger and leaving the background.  This way I can keep the tiger gold and make the background black.  The hardest part is lining the print up for the double printing.  We have got robotics after lunch. My group will be starting again so we don't have to use another groups.  I have learnt how to mindstorm and how to get the robot to move using the sound sensor.

My fierce tiger!

At Enrich I did some more of my lino printing. I have finished carving out my tiger, but it took the whole session to get it done.  Katie is doing a lino print of a cat, but I think that my tiger would eat that cat for breakfast!  My tiger is pretty fierce looking.  During chess time, I played against Matt L, but I lost.  Matt got me into check, so I had to move my King because I couldn't block it, but that meant that my Rook was in line, so he took my last Rook!

13 kids in the class today...

Today at Enrich we did a technology challenge.  We had such a small class today - only 13 of us at roll call! Katie changed the day a bit, so that's why we did a technology challenge. We had to build a shelter out of newspaper, string, tape and a plastic bag!  Ours didn't work, but if we'd had more time, we probably could have got it done.  I am doing doubles on my penguin lino print.  That's what I spent my afternoon doing.
