2011 Refection

This year we had to fill in a reflection sheet to see what we have improved 
on and what we need to work on. 
I found it quite hard but it was also fun.
Here is mine:
I found it interesting to actually see what I had learnt!

Tena koe Hannah,


You were very busy this week creating your scale model of your band rotunda.  I was impressed with you and Sophie's critical thought about what materials to use...I think you were wise not to use plasticine for the whole thing!  I hope you get it finished next week, you have worked hard to make sure it is an accurate model!


Enjoy your last week at Enrich

Cartooning

Last week Kerry came in to teach us cartooning.
It was so fun. We learnt how to do caricatures and cartoons.
For the caricatures we got to copy a caricature from the All Blacks.
I did the All Blacks coach. It looked great. We also learnt how to change a characters expressions by adding in dots and lines.
We also Watched a YouTube clip on caricatures.

Habits of mind!

Today we learnt some more habits of mind.
They are Persistance, that is where you stick to something you can't complete, Responding with wonderment and awe, that is when you use your expressions when you see something cool. The last one was taking responsible risks, that is when you take a risk that is NOT dumb, stupid or silly.
It was really fun.
