Look back What did you do? What could you improve?	I did my Passion Project in Term 2 which was to report things and learn about the radio and to be the project manager. I could improve by using more of spare Enrich time when I’m not doing anything to practice or do some thing on it so I’m better than I would have been when it comes to be time to do it.
Questions What questions have you answered? What questions do you still have?	When I did my Talent Development for the MADE Awards I didn’t even know what the MADE Awards were but now I know what the MADE Awards are and how to edit and make movies as well as a lot more about the Water Tower and a lot more about the museum and the Tuatara’s but there’s still some questions that haven’t been answered yet for example I still don’t know who had the idea of the water tower in the first place.
Pull it apart What factors contributed to your learning? What challenged you?	The things that have helped me the most would definitely have to be the teachers. They’re so easy to comunicate with and help you when you need it without any hesitation at all.
Make connections What did you learn to do better? What sort of thinking helped you?	I learnt ALOT this term when we were doing maths. One thing I learnt was about pi which will work out your circumference because you divide your circumference by pi (pi is 3.14) and it will equal your diamter, so you halve that which gives your radius so you then can draw your circle with a compass
Make judgements My progress was...	The progress that I made this year is that I would be pretty much all the things that I have done at Enrich. Even if I did it last year I still learnt more. At Enrich everything that you do pratically extends your brain power because even if your really really extremely good at that subject Enrich will still take you further and hopefully it will keep on doing it.

Hi Kate,

Gosh you were busy today! You and Emilia worked hard to create an accurate band rotunda, even the steps which were the most difficult part. What scale did you work to? Are you going to paint it when it is finished? You will have to help me stick the wooden one together when we get it next year!

Band rotunda

Today at Maths we decreased the Band rotunda by 0.125:1 to make a mini one for puppets. We aren't doing it for preschoolers anymore because the wood is too thin so it would just break and the preschoolers would fall. We had to measure the puppets first to see how big the Band rotunda needed to be.

Bullying

Today I did bullying with Alana. We learnt what to do when you're being bullied. When you are in the situation where your being called names you should talk to the bully and sort it out with them if this doesn't work then you should see an adult and hope that they can sort it out with the bully. It was really fun learning about bullying and I'd like to learn some more about it.

1st Day Back

Today was our first ay back at Enrich. Apart from the art people we have a new talent development. I am not an art person so I have a new talent development which is mathematics. What we are doing is measuring.

We are measuring the Band Rotunda in Queen's Park and making a mini one for kids to play in at the library.

We went on a field trip and I measured the stairs of the Band Rotunda.

So far I am having lots of fun and can't wait to go further.

Two stars and a wish for Term 3

One star for this term would be having a team to work with so you don't have all the pressure on just you, you have other people to help you get it finished on time too.

Another star for this term is that we finished our documentary and it well, looks good and I'm very happy with it and so should the rest of my group because they put in a lot of hard work too and we couldn't have done it without each other.

A wish is that we had more time because we had tons of great film and we had to cut out way over half of it. It would be really hard to watch all of them without a certain time limit because it would all be too long except for some of them would be 5 minutes or under and the even harder part would be judging it because it would be so hard to remember it all! So really you have to have a time limit, but still it would be great not to. What you could do is make a robot and set it to the standards that you want it to be at, and then get it to choose the one that had was the most like how the standards were set. It would get it perfect because it's a robot and robots always get stuff perfect, even more perfect than how the standard maker would (because thats why they buy robots or if they just can't do it at all themselves) but that would cost a lot of money that they probably wouldn't be able to afford.

Done and Dusted

Today Phoenix, Claudia and I finished our Documentary [Wheew! What a relief.]

It is four minutes and twenty two seconds long now and it used to be eighteen minutes and thirteen seconds. Wow! What a difference!

The part I enjoyed doing the most would have to be going on the field trips to take some video, holding the tuatara and going on the Burt Munro and interviewing Tim Shadbolt and out of those it would be holding the tuatara and going in the Burt Munro.

I think my group and my documentary is awesome and I hope we do well in the Made Awards.

I've had lots of fun with my group [and disappointing moments] and I'd be thrilled to do it again.
