REM Robot

Last week we made the most simple robot to make but it was NOT simple. We had to find all the pieces to make it!

Today we programmed it to move. We had to go onto MINDSTORMZ to get them to move and it was harder than having to find all the pieces.
In the end we got it moving and I was so excited!!!

Gifted Week!

This week is Gifted week, I'm writing
what giftedness means to me.
Giftedness to me is thinking creatively and working at a higher level than other kids my age.
Enrich isn't like normal school because we have a flexible time table, that's why I am
lucky to go.
Giftedness is having good task commitment to the things that you are passionate about.
I am passionate about writing and art.

Leader-board Chess

This morning the whole class had to do a game of leader-board chess.  I played Jemma.


It was so fun and challenging like a puzzle.


It involves strategy and maths.


I won because I put Jemma in checkmate.


Checkmate is when you make a move and then there is no way your challenger can move his/her king to get away and be safe.
